The U.S. government is now funded for an additional 45 days. This means there will be no delay in filings that are due at the FCC in October. This includes uploading quarterly issues programs
lists in the public file and retransmission consent elections.
Commissioner Anna Gomez is now at the Commission. In addition, last week Commissioners Carr and Starks were unanimously confirmed by the U.S. Senate. After nearly three years, the FCC has a full slate of Commissioners. This means that the government agency will move forward with new policy initiatives.
