The federal agencies responsible for protecting the public interest in the technology, telecommunications, and financial sectors are drifting from their core missions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without robust congressional oversight, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC)<\/strong>, Federal Communications Commission (FCC)<\/strong>, and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)<\/strong> have become less accountable and less effective, leaving consumers, workers, and communities vulnerable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the first 10 months of this Congress, there have been no<\/em> full oversight hearings for these critical independent agencies. While we wait for congressional leadership, civil society groups are stepping up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join Public Knowledge<\/strong> on November 12th<\/strong> for The People\u2019s Oversight Hearing<\/strong>\u2014a full day of civil society-hosted, public testimony to shine light on regulatory failures and Congress\u2019s abdication of its oversight responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
