  • can you give me the name and address of the chairman of the congressional committee having oversight on the federal communications commission?


  • I am following up on the recent egregious action by the Republican majority on the commission in giving away the airwaves to private broadcasters. Objections were taken by Senators Dorgan, Hollings and Lott. How do I direct copies of my communications to them?
