Dingell Again Urges Coordination between Congress and FCC in Implementation of National Broadband Plan

Washington, DC - Congressman John D. Dingell (D-MI-15) issued the following statement in response to the Federal Communications Commission’s release of the National Broadband Plan:

“I commend Chairman Genachowski for completing a comprehensive plan to improve broadband adoption nationwide.  As with any plan of this scope, questions about its implementation and effects will naturally arise, and as such, I look forward to upcoming congressional oversight hearings on the National Broadband Plan.  Moreover, I again urge the Commission not to leap haphazardly into implementation of the plan, but rather to work with the Congress in ensuring all Americans have access to broadband technology.”
