Regulatory Reform Legislative Proposal

State telecommunications policy is the subject of the January 22 Forum. A proposal to realign some regulations regarding telephone and broadband regulation is intended to be discussed during the 2014 legislative session. Advocates of the bill regard the proposal as creating a more level playing field among service providers. At the same time there are concerns about the impact of proposed changes. There is little doubt that the profile of service usage is shifting. Please join us for this discussion which will provide information about the bill as well as clarify its possible impact.

Speakers:
Brent Christensen, President/CEO, Minnesota Telecom Alliance
Dennis Ahlers, Assistant Commissioner, Minnesota Department of Commerce
Dan Lipschultz, CLEC Coalition, Moss and Barnett
