Speaker - FCC General Counsel Thomas Johnson
Mr. Johnson has served as General Counsel of the Federal Communications Commission since October 2017. As the Commission’s chief legal advisor, Mr. Johnson argued the Restoring Internet Freedom case before the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, in which he defended the FCC’s adoption of a light-touch, transparency-based approach to broadband regulation and repeal of the so-called “net neutrality” rules. Mr. Johnson has also taken a leading role in drafting and defending in court the Commission’s policies to promote deployment of wireless infrastructure and free up spectrum that will be critical to the development of next-generation (“5G”) services.
