(Jan 21) In a meeting with Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel and staff, NTCA provided an update on the work of its members over the past year to deliver on the mission of universal service in rural America. NTCA further noted that that there is still work to be done in reaching some customers, and that even where robust networks are built and high-speed services are being delivered, USF support is also needed to sustain networks and keep services affordable and able to evolve with consumer demand. NTCA also discussed the need to shore up and stabilize the eroding base of revenues that support the Commission’s essential USF efforts.
