BT Statement Regarding FCC Business Data Services Vote


IRVING, Texas, April 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, the Federal Communications Commission took a major step forward in its commitment to bring real reform to the critical market for business data services. For over a decade, American consumers, businesses, and the US economy have paid the price for the enduring lack of competition in this market. The FCC is now poised to usher in a new competitive and sustainable business data services framework to the benefit of the entire broadband economy. We thank the FCC for its action today and look forward to continuing our work together to ensure that competition governs this critical input to innovation.
