* was first nominated to the FCC by President Barack Obama and served from May 2012 to January 2017.
* She was later confirmed for an additional term in August 2017 where she currently serves as the most senior Democratic commissioner at the FCC.
* Rosenworcel voted to impose and maintain net neutrality and pushed to close what she’s called the “homework gap,” an effort to extend broadband to every child in the country.
I believe she isn’t a supporter of data caps but not sure. Some DEMs have been pushing for a different pick for FCC Chair.
Also regarding the FCC:
>The FCC is directed by five commissioners appointed by the president of the United States and confirmed by the United States Senate for five-year terms, except when filling an unexpired term. The U.S. president designates one of the commissioners to serve as chairman. Only three commissioners may be members of the same political party. None of them may have a financial interest in any FCC-related business

Do acting chairs typically get formally appointed and upgraded to chairs? Or does a different person actually get appointed most of the time?

Can we get the stupid things they’ve done to censor the internet overturned please? Pornhub shouldn’t be held liable for things that their users post. The user should be held liable. These restrictions are only used to control content and censor. There are already legal repercussions for posting illegal content. Let the aggregators aggregate. Leave the policing to the police.
