Following up on Evan's suggestion, Congress in 1993 granted the @FCC the authority to auction spectrum. The FCC has held over 100 auctions since, generating hundreds of billions of dollars for the @USTreasury and likely *trillions* of dollars of value for American consumers. 4/5 https://t.co/U0jFByu66N — PolitiTweet.org

In 1985, Evan Kwerel and Alex Felker proposed a new approach: what if the FCC auctioned licenses? This would be more efficient; it would "provide a return to taxpayers"; and the FCC would have useful information on the value of wireless services.

The next time you use a smartphone, I hope you'll give a silent salute to Evan Kwerel and the many talented career employees at the @FCC whose work over many years has enabled us to communicate. They've dedicated their lives to public service, and we're better off for it! 5/5 — PolitiTweet.org
