Comments Filed on AT&T Preemption Request  

Source: Washington Watch |By NECA

Comments were filed on July 7, 2026, on AT&T’s petition seeking a declaratory ruling that any California law or regulation that interferes with or otherwise conditions AT&T’s ability to discontinue POTS as authorized by the FCC is preempted, following the March 2026 network modernization order.   

 The Utility Reform Network, et al. said California’s COLR rules further both the state’s and FCC’s universal service goals and are providing for the public safety and general welfare of California residents. They also said the network modernization order AT&T relies on is too narrowly scoped to be applied here.
