Posted on 11/18/2024
President-elect Trump is tapping Brendan Carr of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to chair the agency.
Trump said he first nominated Carr to the FCC in 2017 and he was confirmed unanimously by the Senate.
“His current term runs through 2029 and, because of his great work, I will now be designating him as permanent Chairman,” Trump said Sunday.
Carr was the FCC’s general counsel and the adviser to former FCC Chair Ajit Pai.
He is currently the top Republican in the FCC, which is an independent agency that regulates communications in the U.S. and internationally.
