On July 18, PCCA sent U.S. Senators a letter of support for Arielle Roth’s nomination to lead the National Telecommunications and Information Administration after the Senate invoked cloture on her nomination by a 50-34 vote on July 17. PCCA supports Ms. Roth’s nomination because she understands the urgency of getting all Americans access to reliable connectivity. If confirmed, she can lead NTIA to move the BEAD program forward quickly and unleash long-awaited federal funding to every state to bridge connectivity gaps and ensure that all Americans have access to broadband. Ms. Roth will likely receive a full Senate vote next week.
On June 25, the Power and Communications Contractors Association (PCCA) joined more than 80 leading trade organizations in sending this letter to Senate leadership, pressing for passage of the new budget reconciliation tax package. With millions of jobs and local economies at stake, the coalition called for urgent action to deliver permanent tax relief for pass-through businesses. At the heart of the request was a full extension of the Section 199A deduction, vital for supporting pass-through entities and C corporations, alongside protections for the deductibility of state and local taxes.
Thanks to the strength and unity of this business community, those provisions were signed into law as part of the Big Beautiful Bill. PCCA is proud to have played a part in that success and remains deeply committed to advancing policies that support American enterprise and drive growth from the ground up.
