  • The chair and vice chair at first-responder network FirstNet have sent formal resignations to Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross.
  • Sue Swenson, chair of the board since 2014, and Vice Chair Jeffrey Johnson are stepping down, the NTIA says.
  • "Having accomplished what Chief Johnson and I set out to do back in 2012 with the deployment of the Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network across all 56 states and territories with AT&T (T +0.5%), it seems like the right time to transition," Swenson says.
  • With the resignations, the board has seven seats to fill and its next quarterly meeting is in December.
  • The board chair is selected by the Secretary of Commerce, while that chair selects the board's vice chair.
