Federal Communications Commission Transparency Act

This bill amends the Communications Act of 1934 to prohibit the Federal Communications Commission from adopting any order, decision, report, or action by vote at a meeting unless it publishes on its website the text of such order, decision, report, or action not later than 21 days before the vote is to occur, except when an emergency requires publication less than 21 days before the vote. The bill also allows an exemption from the publication requirement if publication may result in the disclosure of certain confidential information.
