                               STATEMENT OF 
                       COMMISSIONER BRENDAN CARR 
                APPROVING IN PART AND CONCURRING IN PART 
                                        
Re:   Communications Marketplace Report, GN Docket No. 22-203 
 
      When we adopted the Commission’s prior Communications Marketplace Report in 2020, I voted 
to approve in part and concur in part because, in my view, we could have gone further in recognizing the 
converged market for connectivity.1  I continue to have that view this go around.  So I am again voting to 
approve in part and concur in part. 

 


                         

1 Communications Marketplace Report et al., GN Docket No. 20-60, Report, 36 FCC Rcd 2945 (2020) (Statement 
of Commissioner Carr) (“I would go even further than the Report does in recognizing the converged market for 
connectivity that now exists. The Commission’s decades-old approach of viewing different technologies—including 
mobile, fixed, satellite, and broadcast offerings—as competing in distinct and separate markets no longer matches 
the way that Americans consume these services.”).
