For Immediate Release

STATEMENT OF COMMISSIONER MICHAEL O’RIELLY ON
CONGRESSMAN GREG WALDEN’S ANNOUNCED RETIREMENT

WASHINGTON, October 28, 2019.  “I commend Congressman Greg Walden for his many years of service to the American people.  He has always served his constituents with integrity and a genuine concern for their well-being, and I have the utmost respect and appreciation for all that he has done.  I have especially enjoyed working with Mr. Walden on communications law and policy, where his personal experience and demonstrated expertise on issues facing the communications sector have underpinned his thoughtful legislative approach.  We’ve fought together to drive many policy reforms over the years, and I will miss his sage advice and leadership when he leaves office.  I extend my heartfelt congratulations on his accomplishments and wish him and his family all the best in the future, wherever that may lead.”
