As Donald Trump is sworn in as president, Tom Wheeler will be leaving his post as the Federal Communications Commissions Chairman. He served as FCC chairman for three years, a role he calls the "greatest honor" of his professional life.

Wheeler's departure will give the Republicans a 2-1 majority. They will likely be focusing on rolling back regulations like net neutrality rules, which require internet providers to treat all web traffic the same. The GOP argues the rules are too burdensome on businesses. FCC member Ajit Pai said he is confident that under President Trump they can abolish the rules.
