Cable Association Presses for Changes in Universal Service Proposal

摘要

The American Cable Association (ACA) made a pitch for cutting back first-refusal rights in a ncoming FCC order on universal service. Telecom lawyers and observers said the proposed norder would adopt most of a plan offered by incumbents, but FCC aides seem open to whittling ndown right-of-first-refusal provisions and may reconsider the length of a transition to a nbroadband fund.
