Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12Th Street, SW Washington, DC 20554 Re: WC Docket No. 12 Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, SW Washington, DC 20554 Re: WC Docket No. 12-375 Comments re Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Dear Ms. Dortch, Attached, you will find a list of 20,286 people that have signed a Change.org petition in support of prison phone reform. These supporters believe that recent FCC action to reduce the cost of prison phone calls was a crucial first step towards affordable access for our nation’s inmates, but that meaningful reform cannot be achieved without addressing sheriffs’ commissions. Across the country, sheriffs’ departments exploit loopholes that generate hundreds of millions of dollars in commissions, ultimately taking money from people that can least afford this added cost. Study after study demonstrates that the easier time inmates have remaining connected with the outside world, the greater chance they have of successfully reintegrating into society once they are released. Instead of contributing to this important goal, sheriffs’ departments continue to receive commissions for providing telecommunications services to inmates. They even went so far as to threaten to eliminate this vital service if their commissions are cut. This claim only serves to underscore the need to act. Given the outpouring of public support shown by this Change.org petition, it is clear that the public is tired of an outdated commissions system. The FCC has a clear mandate to act, and should move to eliminate commissions as soon as possible. Sincerely, Robert Raben Executive Director, The Silent Sentence Coalition Petition Text While you pay a relatively fair market price for phone calls, the 1.57 million inmates across the U.S. and their families are forced to pay rates driven by sheriffs in State and Local governments. Subverting market forces, most sheriffs demand a percentage of the revenue generated from prison phone calls. While this cut of revenue was originally intended to cover costs of operation, Sheriffs have been demanding higher and higher percentages every year. In fact, in Arizona, the commission rate recently reached 94 percent of total revenue. These high costs threaten the stability offered to inmates through frequent family phone conversations. These conversations are critical to ensuring inmates build and sustain the necessary support system to avoid incarceration after release. But instead of supporting inmates and their families, sheriff’s departments are making money at their expense. The FCC has recently decided to cap interstate phone rates and is considering regulating commissions, but they need to know that people like you are appalled by the behavior of our nation’s sheriffs. Please sign this petition and visit http://silentsentence.com/about to learn more about this extremely important issue. Signees 1. Courtney York, North Carolina 20. Rey Ramirez, Pennsylvania 2.

  • 2020 State Legislative Elections Update and 2021 Session Context
    2020 State Legislative Elections Update and 2021 Session Context November 12, 2020 By Emily Murphy Strategies Budget Update: While the revenue forecast has improved since the most dire projections this Spring – shrinking the projected revenue shortfall from approximately $9 billion to now $2.7 billion for the 2021- 2023 biennium – by no means are we out of the woods. Due to the pandemic, state revenue collections are expected to fall nearly $4 billion short of the amount needed to sustain existing commitments to schools, health care, child care, and other essential investments for the next three years1. Revenue experts are also quick to note they are not epidemiologists, and there is no precedent in the modern era to account for a global pandemic on the economic forecasts, especially as we experience spikes in new COVID cases in the winter months, and some nations enter more restrictive lockdowns. The Office of Financial Management projects an estimated $2.4 billion in the Budget Stabilization Account (“Rainy Day Fund”) over the next 3 years. In June, the Office of Financial Management directed state agencies to propose 15% cuts as part of their budget reduction exercise, which amounted to nearly $2 billion in proposed cuts and elimination to services impacting hundreds of thousands of Washingtonians, ranging from maternity support, hospice care, nursing homes, higher education, early learning, housing, and many other programs. While state agencies and lawmakers are clear the budget reduction exercise was simply an exercise (cuts take an act of the legislature), it is a testament to the severity of the economic realities facing our state.

A beautifully-crafted plaque of recognition honoring each inductee is displayed in special display cases in the main concourse of the Energy Solutions Arena. In 1997, the organization officially changed its name to the current USHOFF. In 1972, the OTAA began honoring others who have made substantial contributions to the Utah sports community. The foundation started hosting annual and biannual recognition banquets for the following: 1. Distinguished Utah High School Head Coaches; 2.

These infrastructure investments—in things like mass transit, vehicle and ferry electrification, clean buildings, and more—are a bedrock to our state’s competitive edge. Washington State is also experiencing extreme and historic heat waves and drought conditions. We are at severe risk of a wildfire season even worse than last year, and many of the federal hydropower dams that are an essential component of our region’s infrastructure are likely to produce significantly less of the clean power that our economy relies. Climate policy is economic policy and the historic commitments Washington State has made will help protect the health and wealth of our state for generations.
