House Leaders Say Data on USF Programs Show Need for Reform

摘要

Key members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee from both parties said that data submitted by the FCC to the committee on the Universal Service Fund high-cost and low-income support programs demonstrate the need for fundamental reform of the programs. The committee asked the FCC in June for data on USF support payments. On July 28, it released the data the FCC has submitted thus far, noting that the Commission is expected to file additional information "in the coming weeks."
