On the recordSeptember 9, 2002
I am urging my colleagues to support a bill that I introduced to eliminate impediments that restrict the ability of certain wireless telecommunication providers to, I think, meet the urgent need of the consumers. The bill has bipartisan support and the support of the Subcommittee on Telecommunications and the Internet on which I serve. I am pleased, Mr. Speaker, that a recent editorial in the Wall Street Journal supports my actions on this matter, and I will be providing the Wall Street editorial to be made a part of the Record and part of my speech.
