A broad deregulatory agenda is expected to continue at the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC" or "Commission") and in Congress as Republicans retain control of the White House and increase their representation in Congress. Republican control is expected to translate into support for further easing the media ownership rules, federal preemption of state and local telecommunications regulations, reform of the intercarrier compensation regime and elimination of unbundling obligations on incumbent local exchange carriers ("ILECs"). The chief exceptions to the deregulatory agenda likely will be in the areas of content regulation and indecency in the media.
