COMMISSIONER ROBERT M. McDOWELL CONGRATULATES 

MIGNON L. CLYBURN ON HER CONFIRMATION BY THE U.S. SENATE 

TO BE COMMISSIONER OF THE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION 

FOR A SECOND TERM

The following statement can be attributed to Commissioner Robert M. McDowell:
“I extend my heartfelt congratulations to my colleague, Mignon Clyburn, on her confirmation by 
the U.S. Senate for another term.  While serving as a Commissioner, Mignon has proven to be a 
passionate advocate for her priorities.  At the same time, she has been willing to work towards 
bipartisan consensus on several important issues, such as finding compromise on our 
comprehensive reforms of universal service.  It has been a privilege working with her and I am 
delighted that her confirmation will give the American people five more years of her exemplary 
public service.”
