Chairman Carr Testimony to Senate Commerce Committee at Oversight Hearing

We are advancing a Build America Agenda—a concrete plan to unleash high-speed infrastructure builds, drive down prices for consumers, and restore U.S. leadership in wireless. We are reinvigorating the agency’s consumer protection work, including its efforts to crack down on illegal robocalls. We are empowering broadcasters to meet their public interest obligations.  We are strengthening America’s national security and advancing public safety. We are undertaking the largest deregulatory effort in the agency’s history.  And we are eliminating waste while improving efficiency and modernizing agency operations. The  FCC’s Build America Agenda focuses on a number of core priorities:

• Unleashing High-Speed Infrastructure Builds
