Latino, Welfare Groups Oppose FCC Flat-Fee for Phone Bills

“hey say the plan, which would replace a fee on long-distance phone service, would fall unfairly on people who use the least amount of telephone services.

The Universal Service Fund, totaling $7.1 billion in 2005, currently relies on a 10.2 percent fee assessed on interstate and international long-distance revenues. The fund, operated by the Federal Communications Commission, has been losing revenue recently as consumers have switched to wireless phones or VoIP, Internet phone service.”
