PoliticsTed Cruz seeks to expand Republican FCC majority before Democrats take Senate
Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas is aiming to increase Republicans’ advantage on the Federal Communications Commission before Democrats take control of the Senate in January 2027. He announced a Nov. 10 hearing for Trump nominee Danielle Thumann Severs and appears poised to seek a full Senate vote. Her confirmation would give Republicans a 3-1 edge; that could become 3-0 by the end of 2027 if Trump does not renominate FCC Democrat Anna Gomez.
