Upcoming Webinar
Debriefing the SCOTUS USF Oral Arguments
April 2 @2pm-2:45pm
On March 26, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in FCC v. Consumers' Research, a landmark case that could shape the future of the Universal Service Fund (USF). The outcome of this case has the potential to impact telecommunications policy and funding for broadband initiatives across the nation.
Join us for a comprehensive debrief from those who were present in the courtroom as we break down key moments and insights from the oral arguments. We’ll explore the case’s potential implications for the USF, the broader telecommunications landscape, and what this could mean for stakeholders across the industry.
Meet the Experts
- Andrew Jay Schwartzman, Senior Counselor, Benton Institute for Broadband & Society
