STATEMENT OF COMMISSIONER AJIT PAI
ON COMMISSIONER MIGNON CLYBURN’S CONFIRMATION 
TO A SECOND TERM
I am pleased to congratulate my colleague, Commissioner Mignon Clyburn, on her 
confirmation last night by the United States Senate to a second term as a member of the Federal 
Communications Commission. On issues ranging from rural health care to interstate inmate 
calling rates, Commissioner Clyburn championed reform and substantially improved the 
Commission’s work during her first term. Her engagement, collegiality, and commitment to the 
interests of consumers will continue to be vital assets to the Commission as we confront the 
challenges on our agenda.
