If the US Government wants to put in place the most pro-innovation, 
pro-investment,
deregulatory and democratic spectrum policy regime, it should do 
everything possible to
promote open spectrum. Specifically, Congress and the FCC should take 
the following
four steps:
* Develop rules to foster more effective cooperation among unlicensed users
* Set aside more spectrum for unlicensed uses
* Eliminate restrictions on non-intrusive underlay techniques across 
licensed bands
* Promote experimentation and research in unlicensed wireless technology
