The Hill: President Trump will nominate Brendan Carr, currently serving as general counsel at the Federal Communications Commission, to be the third Republican commissioner at the agency, a White House spokesman told The Hill.
Before being tapped as the FCC's acting general counsel earlier this year, Carr was a top advisor to Chairman Ajit Pai when he was a commissioner in the GOP minority.
Carr will likely be a close ally to Pai as the chair pushes his proposal to kill the FCC's Obama-era net neutrality rules.
