FCC Moves to End USF Litigation
Consumers’ Research lost in the Sixth Circuit and lost in the Eleventh Circuit. Last Monday, the Supreme Court declined to review those decisions.
WASHINGTON, June 17, 2024 – The Federal Communications Commission took steps in court Monday that could remove the legal cloud over the Universal Service Fund.
