Media Contact: Will Adams, (202) 418-2007 will.adams@fcc.gov For Immediate Release Carr Announces Strong Support for FCC Action on C-Band Lauds Pai’s Leadership, Big Win for American 5G WASHINGTON, DC, February 6, 2020––Commissioner Brendan Carr made the following comments after the FCC’s action on C-Band spectrum was announced this morning: “This morning’s announcement is another big win for American leadership in 5G. It means even more mid-band spectrum will power American 5G, the American taxpayer will see billions of dollars of revenue, and the C-Band services that Americans rely on will be protected.  It is a rare win-win-win in Washington, and I am proud to strongly support it.   “Unlocking the C-Band’s potential has been one of the most challenging public policy puzzles to solve that I’ve seen in my time on the FCC. Chairman Pai and his team deserve tremendous credit for where we are today. “It’s the right decision, and he should be praised for our action.” ### Office of Commissioner Brendan Carr: (202) 418-2200 www.fcc.gov/about/leadership/brendan-carr
