 2024 Policy Initiatives

  • Supporting competition and choice for fast networks to enable greater economic growth for our cities and towns.
  • Advocating for policymakers to streamline permitting and to ensure reasonable costs for our member companies to deploy their networks in public rights-of-way, including on poles, pole replacements, railroad crossings, and franchise fees.
  • Advocating the FCC to review and update the Universal Service Fund (USF) to ensure that funding is still going to where it is truly needed.
  • Recommending that the FCC expand the USF contribution base to include broadband internet access service revenues.
  • Advocating for solutions that fill current regulatory gaps.
  • Ensure industry efforts to manage illegal robocalls and robotexts do not intentionally or inadvertently discriminate against competitive providers.
