Federal Communications Commission

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is a U.S. government agency responsible for regulating communication systems, including radio, television, satellite, and the internet. Established in 1934, its mission is to ensure that all Americans have access to reliable communications services while promoting competition and innovation. The FCC sets rules to protect consumers, manage the public airwaves, and oversee telecommunications companies to ensure they operate fairly and responsibly. By doing so, the FCC plays a crucial role in shaping the country's communications landscape and ensuring that communication technologies serve the public interest.
