Sorry, I don't see it as a "political" problem.  It's a "societal" problem.  
Far too many CBers are dedicated, consumate law-breakers, and that's been true 
ever since they were first given access to the 27 MHz band.  So I strongly 
support FCC measures to make it harder for that group of outlaws to get access 
to equipment their licenses don't allow them to have.  Admittedly, it was 
stupid to open an ionospheric-skip band to a supposedly line-of-sight service, 
but to call it a political problem is to blame a homeowner for leaving his door 
unlocked when vandals steal from him.  Ahhhh....the age of entitlement; I love 
it!
