I would also highlight with my colleagues we have privacy and data security legislation we would love to move forward on.

We have privacy and data security legislation we would love to move forward on.

We must have an all-of-the-above approach when it comes to forging defensive strategies against cybercriminals.

Hardworking taxpayers are demanding leadership from Washington in the cyber arena and it is our duty to provide it.

It is often said that spectrum is the lifeblood of wireless connectivity, and wireless demand continues to surge at an incredible rate.

I will remind my colleagues across the aisle that, again, section 222 of the Communications Act covers the authority that the FCC needs. Traditionally, online privacy has been handled by the FTC. That is an authority that we have…

Every member of this committee should agree to work aggressively on this issue.

Realizing Next Generation 911 services throughout the nation is critical, but as with any large-scale transition there are challenges to overcome.

The evolution in communications technology continues to change the lives of Americans and for the better.

The ability for a veteran or a citizen to be able to get those pieces and put them together is something that is coming.

I am a veteran, an Army veteran.

We are all for clean air, we are all for clean water, what we want to do is make certain that there is the ability to plan for and to meet the standards that are on the books

We know it takes a lot of time to come up here, but we are very appreciative.
