Washington – The Computer & Communications Industry Association issued the following statement commending the House Energy and Commerce Committee, along with Chairman Brett Guthrie, Ranking Member Frank Pallone, Communications and Technology Subcommittee Chairman Richard Hudson, and Subcommittee Ranking Member Doris Matsui, for advancing the House version of the Satellite and Telecommunications (SAT) Streamlining Act (H.R. 8255) through subcommittee markup.
