FCC Staff Investigating EBB Provider: Rosenworcel

The FCC Enforcement Bureau "formally initiated an investigation" into a broadband provider that "may have been abusing the [community eligible provision] enrollment process" in the emergency broadband benefit program, Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel wrote Senate Commerce Committee ranking member Roger Wicker, R-Miss.; Communications Subcommittee ranking member John Thune, R-S.D.; House Commerce Committee ranking member Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash.; and Communications Subcommittee ranking member Bob Latta, R-Ohio, in a letter posted Friday (see 2112130057). Rosenworcel didn't name the provider. She said staff would provide their offices with "the name of the investigative target" privately because the investigation is "still ongoing."
