He talked about the changes in emergency communications capabilities for first responders. Representative Shimkus sponsored the Domain Openness Through Continued Oversight Matters Act of 2015 (DOTCOM Act of 2015) which gives the House a more defined role in reviewing plans to turn over U.S. oversight of the domain name system to an international multi-stakeholder group. The DOTCOM Act passed the House but Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) had raised questions about the constitutionality of yielding U.S. control over domain names.
