FCC’s Pai To Step Down On Inauguration Day

Politio reports…

Federal Communications Commission Chair Ajit Pai said Monday that he will step down on the day that President-elect Joe Biden is sworn in.

Pai’s departure had been widely expected after President Donald Trump’s reelection defeat. It is traditional for FCC chairs to step down in deference to incoming administrations from the opposing party.

As I reported just earlier today, there’s still working happening in and around the FCC.
