NaLa to FCC: Let ACP Providers Keep Subs NLAD-Enrolled

The National Lifeline Association raised concerns with FCC Wireline Bureau staff about the potential funding gap in the affordable connectivity program. Many providers will continue reduced or no-cost service offerings "for some period of time in hopes of an ACP funding solution," NaLa said in a letter Friday in docket 21-450. It asked the commission to forego requiring that ACP providers de-enroll subscribers from the national Lifeline accountability database as of June 1. The process of re-enrolling ACP subscribers "would be a tremendous burden on ACP providers and consumers," NaLa said.
