Summary
The Supreme Court will review a case challenging the FCC’s authority over the Universal Service Fund (USF), which subsidizes broadband for low-income, rural communities, schools, and libraries.
The case questions whether Congress improperly delegated lawmaking power to the FCC and whether the FCC gave too much authority to the nonprofit managing the fund.
This follows the Court’s rollback of Chevron doctrine, which diminishes reliance on agency expertise.
A Fifth Circuit ruling deemed the USF’s funding structure unconstitutional, raising concerns about the future of affordable broadband access nationwide.
with ‘fuck the poor people’ being the new GOP mantra, how could this possibly go any way but terrible
New?
yeah i was kinda thinking with the chevron thing now they can dismantle anything that even kind of helped regular people. but youre right, its always been about taking from the poor to feed the rich.
don’t forget they’ll rob the people blind and then say it was the mexicans that did it, and brainless sheeple maga voters will 100% believe it
its kind of sad. that herd has been carefully curated over the last 2+ generations via propaganda, fear and ‘ick’ factors.
its very hard to logic people out of something they did not logic themselves into.
