"The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act is an important piece of legislation that was a culmination of more than three years of education and advocacy by CTIA and its members to get more spectrum to market so we continue meeting Americans' insatiable demand for the world's best wireless products and services.
"The Act provides a much needed down payment to ensuring our members can offer their customers better, faster and more ubiquitous mobile services, including mobile broadband. In addition, it will provide a boost for our country's economy by spurring our members to continue to invest in infrastructure, develop innovations and create jobs.
"We look forward to continuing our bipartisan efforts, with support from the president, members of Congress, FCC Chairman and Commissioners and other policymakers to meet the goals of the National Broadband Plan to find 500 megahertz of spectrum within the next eight years."
