Talk about hitting the ground running.

With the two new FCC commissioners now officially sworn in as of Monday (May 14), they will be testifying Wednesday at a Senate Commerce Committee oversight hearing on the FCC. That is according to a committee press office spokesman.

It will be familiar territory for both, but moreso for Rosenworcel, who has been top telecom adviser to Commerce Committee Chairman Jay Rockefeller (D-W. Va.). Pai also counts Senate advisor on his resume.
