Frank Pallone
The Public Record
Frank Joseph Pallone is an American politician serving as the U.S. Representative for New Jersey's 6th congressional district since 1993. A member of the Democratic Party, Pallone has been a prominent advocate for health care reform, environmental protection, and consumer rights. He has played a key role in shaping legislation related to public health and climate change, often speaking out against policies he views as detrimental to these areas.
I share the sentiment of the chairman when he says this is a top-of-mind issue for voters.
This bill did not have the opportunity to receive Republican input before it was stuffed into the partisan reconciliation tool as part of Democrats' $3.5 trillion dollar tax and spending spree.
The breadth and significance of these bills demands much more than a last-minute legislative hearing.
This legislation requires making at least 200 megahertz of new midband spectrum available for auction.
Communications networks play an integral role in the lives of our constituents, and today we are going to examine legislation aimed at strengthening those networks.
Without this extension, the universal service programs, including rural broadband, rural healthcare, telemedicine, E-rate and Lifeline programs may be at risk.
H.R. 2489, the Martha Wright Prison Phone Justice Act, would require the FCC to issue rules to limit the costs that may be charged to incarcerated individuals or their families.
I am also looking forward to discussing Representative Rush's bill to address predatory phone rates and fees that target incarcerated people and their families.
