===Oral Statement Regarding Internet Governance: The Future of ICANN===

During a hearing conducted by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation Subcommittee on Trade, Tourism and Economic Development on September 15, 2006, Leibowitz again talked about the importance of the Whois database in law enforcement and a preliminary decision by the GNSO to limit it for technical purposes only will jeopardize the Commissions ability to protect consumers. After attending the ICANN Meeting in Morocco, Leibowitz said that ICANN understood FTC's concern and the GNSO re-evaluated its decision and the internet governing body is "committed in doing the right thing." Furthermore, he said that the US Safe Web Act is another way to collaborate with foreign law enforcement agencies to fight online fraud and protect American consumers in the global market.<ref>
