  • EPIC Joins Public Knowledge in Supporting FCC Rule that Prohibits Digital Discrimination in Broadband Accessibility

    July 12, 2024

    Public Knowledge, joined by EPIC, in its amicus brief argued that the FCC's mandate to make communications technology available to all Americans dates back to at least the 1930s. The advocacy groups' brief included arguments that the Telecommunications Act of 1996 explicitly included a nondiscrimination provision to further this mandate, that the disparities made clear and made worse by the COVID-19 pandemic gave rise to the IIJA in which Congress more explicitly compelled the FCC to meet its mandate of universal service for communications technologies.
