Eshoo (CA-18), Ranking Member of the House Communications and Technology Subcommittee, issued the following statement on today’s announcement that FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler will resign in January. “During my tenure in Congress, I have had the privilege to work with seven Chairmen and two Acting Chairs of the FCC. Tom Wheeler’s leadership stands the tallest with an historic record of reshaping the telecommunications and technology landscape, making the U.S. a leader across all sectors. He has strengthened the public safety network; he made networks open, fast and fair for all Americans; assured low income Americans that they, too, would share in our country’s technological age; and advanced spectrum to keep our economy growing for decades to come. “As the 31st Chairman of the FCC, Tom Wheeler will long be credited for leading the charge to shape 21st century policies of innovation and competition for the American people, and his courage, knowledge and determination will withstand the test of history.” # # # | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
