Chairman #ElijahCummings first words on House floor:
“I only have a minute, only 60 seconds in it. Forced upon me, I didn’t choose it, but I know that I must use it. Give account if I abuse it, suffer if I lose it.Only a tiny little minute, but eternity is in it.”

Quotable
“When you look at this transaction, whether its our review at the FCC or… the pending litigation led by Democrat State AGs, it tees up two fundamentally different approaches to technology. One I think is very backwards-looking that operates to preserve the status quo. I think that fails the Gretzky test. When you look at where the hockey puck is today and where it’s going on 5G, I think we should embrace this disruptive, new competition… approving this deal puts us on a clear path to getting there.”
