Federal Communications Commission FCC 13-14 STATEMENT OF COMMISSIONER MIGNON CLYBURN Re: Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, CC Docket No. 96-45, Federal-State Joint Board on Jurisdictional Separations, CC Docket No. 80-286, Federal-State Joint Conference on Advanced Telecommunications Services, CC Docket No. 99-294 I am pleased to welcome Commissioners Rosenworcel and Pai to the Universal Service Joint Board and Separations Joint Board, and I wish Commissioner Rosenworcel the best as federal chair of the Universal Service Joint Board, the Separations Joint Board, and the Joint Conference. My time in that capacity was a labor of love, and I look forward to continued service with those individuals who work tirelessly to keep our federal and state collaboration running smoothly. I would also like to pay tribute to Angie Kronenberg, my legal advisor who oversaw all of my interaction with the Joint Boards. Angie’s great counsel and mastery of the issues combined with countless memos, long nights, and lots of travel, were of tremendous benefit to the FCC and our state allies, and I cannot thank her enough for her contributions.
