FCC STATEMENT ON COMCAST V. FCC DECISION
Federal Communications Commission Spokesperson Jen Howard:
“The FCC is firmly committed to promoting an open Internet and to policies that will bring the 
enormous benefits of broadband to all Americans. It will rest these policies -- all of which will be 
designed to foster innovation and investment while protecting and empowering consumers -- on 
a solid legal foundation.
“Today’s court decision invalidated the prior Commission’s approach to preserving an open 
Internet. But the Court in no way disagreed with the importance of preserving a free and open 
Internet; nor did it close the door to other methods for achieving this important end.”
