"The domestic energy boom is good news--but only if we are wise enough to let it happen."

"I personally believe it is not fair at all that the end result is that a low power television station that has been a good licensee ends up totally off the air."

"We want to maximize revenue for deficit reduction, we want to maximize reallocation of spectrum for new uses..."

"A broadcast incentive auction that fails to raise the revenue needed for these projects or that unnecessarily gives away billions in cleared spectrum will be considered a failure."
