Hudson Senior Fellow and Director of the Center for Economics of the Internet

Robert McDowell,

Commissioner, Federal Communications Commission

FCC Commissioner McDowell has often noted that decreasing the burdens of onerous or unnecessary regulations increases investment, spurs innovation, accelerates competition, lowers prices, creates jobs and serves consumers. He has also expressed his view that the FCC should approach its statutory mission through a deregulatory lens, as Congress intended.
