Regretfully, I must advise all of you that there's a roll call ending at this moment so I will call this hearing to a recess, but I'll be back in about 10 minutes.

Congress established retransmission consent to 'ensure the universal availability of local broadcast signals' to consumers.
Broadcasters should be allowed to negotiate for fair value and carriage of their signals.
I commend Chairman Rockefeller for convening this hearing to consider the impact of the Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 on the modern television marketplace.
I believe that the retransmission consent regime enacted in 1992 is one of the great Washington public policy accomplishments of the last two decades.
