As an ISDN line subscriber, I am writing to support Pacific Bell's petition
to waive the requirement that raises the number of subscriber line charges
for ISDN, and I strongly encourage the Federal Communications Commission to
act favorably on Pacific Bell's petition.
This order, which will result in rate hikes of up to 50 percent in California,
will only stifle the rapid growth and acceptance of this powerful technology
by making it prohibitively expensive. Today, ISDN provides quick, affordable
access to the Internet, enabling schools, libraries, non-profit organizations,
government facilities, small businesses and researchers nationwide to tap into
vast on-line resources and information. In addition, ISDN is a major force in
the burgeoning telecommuting movement, which heightens corporate productivity
while protecting our environment.
(Insert statement on how the order will affect you and your family here.)
I urge the FCC to reconsider its ruling. After all, technology must be
accessible to all Americans -- not just the technologically elite.
Sincerely,
February 23, 1995
