# Commissioners Rosenworcel and Pai Take Office

 May 15, 2012

 

 

 

 

 

 

One week after Senate confirmation, new FCC Commissioners Jessica Rosenworcel and Ajit Pai were sworn in to office. With these appointments, the FCC reaches its full complement of commissioners for the [first time in nearly a year](http://www.telecomlawmonitor.com/2011/05/articles/fcc/fcc-commissioner-baker-joining-comcastnbcu/). Both Commissioners released short statements expressing excitement to begin their tenures on the FCC. The statements are available [here](https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.kelleydrye.com/content/uploads/blogs/comm-law-monitor/2012/05/Rosenworcel.pdf) and [here](https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.kelleydrye.com/content/uploads/blogs/comm-law-monitor/2012/05/Pai.pdf).

They will get their first opportunity to comment publicly as commissioners tomorrow, when the Senate Commerce Committee will hold an oversight hearing. Their first full Commission meeting will be May 24th.
