FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai Releases Statement On Broadband Deployment

FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai has released a statement concerning deployment of broadband throughout the U.S. It begins:

The American government needs to embrace the IP transition.  Consumers and private enterprise already have done so, recognizing that next-generation technologies such as optical fiber and wireless broadband offer higher quality, more efficient services than the old twisted copper pairs of yesteryear.  Over the past two days, I have had the opportunity to visit two companies that are working to deploy these technologies to all Americans.  And I learned there just how important the IP Transition is for every citizen, and how regulatory policy can promote or impede broadband deployment.
