ICN Issue 19 - March 2026

This brand-new issue brings you the latest news and top insights from the team at America's Communications Association (ACA Connects) and other industry leaders nationwide. 

This issue features a standout sit‑down interview between ACA Connects President & CEO Grant Spellmeyer and Energy and Commerce Chairman Brett Guthrie (R‑KY). 

As Grant noted, “Chairman Guthrie provided a behind-the-scenes perspective on the innerworkings of the Committee, what drives Members of Congress to reach across the aisle, who they are listening to, and how ACA Connects members can make the biggest impact. He shared updates on the committee’s work to pass permitting reforms, rewrite the 1992 Cable Act, and the future of AI.”
