Exclude Site Commission From ICS Rates, UCC Says

The United Church of Christ asked staff for acting FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel to rein in "inappropriate ancillary fees" associated with inmate calling services, said a filing posted Tuesday in docket 12-375. Site commission payments are "not mandated by either federal law or court precedent," and FCC precedent "requires the opposite," said Cheryl Leanza, UCC policy adviser.
