COMMISSIONER COPPS ANNOUNCES STAFF CHANGES
Commissioner Michael J. Copps announced today that Jessica Rosenworcel, his 
Senior Legal Advisor and advisor on media issues, will be leaving the Federal 
Communications Commission to serve as Senior Legal Counsel to the Senate Committee 
on Commerce, Science and Transportation, working on telecommunications and media 
issues.  
Commissioner Copps said he greeted Ms. Rosenworcel’s departure with “mixed 
emotions” because of the extensive reliance he has placed on this “remarkable public 
servant.” “Jessica has it all,” Copps said, “keen intellect, vision and superb practical 
judgment for the art of the possible. She has led my staff through some of the most 
challenging proceedings in the recent history of the Commission, and she has done it with 
both admirable strength and a wonderfully pleasant demeanor. All of these skills will 
suit her well and contribute enormously to the work of our friends on the Senate 
Commerce Committee. Their gain is my loss, but the public interest benefits no matter 
what government post Jessica happens to hold.” 
Before joining Commissioner Copps’s office, Ms. Rosenworcel served as legal 
counsel to the chief of the Wireline Competition Bureau.  She received her law degree 
from New York University School of Law and her undergraduate degree from Wesleyan 
University.  
Bruce Gottlieb, advisor on spectrum and international issues, will serve as the 
office’s primary point-of-contact for media issues and Scott Deutchman will serve as 
advisor on competition and universal service issues.  John Branscome—on detail from 
his post as Chief of the Spectrum and Competition Policy Division of the Wireless 
Telecommunications Bureau—will assist on spectrum and international issues.  All staff 
changes take place immediately.
