​The ​U.S. Senate Commerce Committee will hold ‌a hearing Nov. 10 on ⁠President Donald Trump's nominee to ‌serve on the ‌five-member Federal Communications Commission that is considering the ​fate of Walt Disney's eight company-owned ABC ⁠stations.

Trump in August nominated Danielle Thumann Severs, ​who is a senior counsel to FCC Chair ​Brendan Carr, to ‌serve on one of the two ⁠open seats on the commission. The FCC currently has ⁠two Republicans and one Democrat, ​Commissioner Anna Gomez. Trump fired two Democrats on the Federal Trade ‌Commission and dismissed numerous other Democrats ‌and could potentially fire ⁠Gomez if ‌Severs is ​confirmed.
