With the New Jersey Senate slated to vote Monday on a bill that would significantly increase average phone bill, eliminate key consumer protections, and risk millions in infrastructure funding, New Jersey organizations representing over one million New Jersey residents called on the Senate to oppose S2664.
Letter - Organizations Opposing Telco & Cable DeReg (3-18-11)
Don’t Let Verizon Hang Up on New Jersey. This anti-consumer bill would allow Verizon to stop providing local phone service and increase rates without oversight and would eliminate our protections from billing errors, outages, and poor service. Please stand up for working families and seniors, not CEOs, and stop this legislation.
