Media Contact: Robin Colwell, (202) 418-2300 Robin.Colwell@fcc.gov For Immediate Release STATEMENT OF COMMISSIONER MICHAEL O’RIELLY ON COURT REJECTION OF FCC ANDA ORDER WASHINGTON, March 31, 2017. — “The D.C. Circuit decision overturning the Anda Order reconfirms the proper and appropriate reading of the law. It also signals that the court is willing to call the Commission to task for inappropriately creating authority not provided by Congress. I can only hope this view will be applied elsewhere, such as in the court's other case involving TCPA overreach.” -- ### Office of Commissioner Mike O’Rielly: (202) 418-2300 Twitter: @mikeofcc www.fcc.gov/leadership/michael-orielly This is an unofficial announcement of Commission action.
