FCC Poised for 3-1 Republican Majority as Anna Gomez's Term Ended July 1

The FCC is likely to shift to a 3-1 Republican majority from its current 2-1 split after Democratic Commissioner Anna Gomez’s term expired on July 1.
Gomez can remain on the commission until a replacement is confirmed, but the report says the Trump administration could still move to change the lineup before January.
That would leave the agency still short of its full 5-member roster, extending a vacancy that has already kept the commission below capacity.
A firmer Republican edge at the FCC could shape media and telecom decisions as the administration looks to lock in control ahead of the next turnover window.
