 PRESS  STATEMENT  OF  COMMISSIONER  MICHAEL  J.  COPPS 
 I  am  deeply  honored  that  the  President  has  announced  his  intention  to  nominate  me  to  serve  another  term  as  Commissioner  of  the  Federal  Communication  Commission. 
 If  confirmed  by  the  Senate,  it  would  be  a  privilege  to  continue  serving  the  American  people. 


 I  look  forward  to  working  with  Congress,  the  Administration,  the  Chairman  of  the  FCC  and  my  fellow  Commissioners  to  help  bring  the  best,  most  accessible,  and  cost-effective 
 communications  system  in  the  world  to  all  of  our  people.
