The Republicans who lead the country’s top telecom agency arrived at an annual gathering of influential conservatives on Friday hoping to tout their business bona fides -- from freeing the Internet from government’s grasp to battling back the efforts of their Democratic predecessors.

Instead, the appearance by Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai and his GOP colleagues at the agency offered an unexpected brush with a national battle over gun control – and a new ethics complaint targeting one of its members for his comments about President Donald Trump.
