Senate Commerce Receives Paperwork for Biden FCC Nominees

The Senate Commerce Committee “has received” required paperwork from the White House on new FCC nominee Anna Gomez and renominated sitting Commissioners Brendan Carr and Geoffrey Starks, Chair Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., told us Thursday. The panel has been trying to schedule a June hearing on the trio but couldn’t until the Biden administration submitted information (see 2306070073). “We’re going through all” the submitted paperwork now and “will schedule a hearing soon,” she told us: “We’d like to get” pending FAA reauthorization legislation “off the board first.”
