Otherwise, even with the law changed, the FCC will still drag things out and be lazy about it.

Maybe some people should read with their head and not their heart.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-1-year-90-days-is-plenty-of-time-to-decide-22638118 Wed, 01 Jul 2009 04:05:32 EDT Re: 1 year + 90 days is plenty of time to decide http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-1-year-90-days-is-plenty-of-time-to-decide-22637994 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-1-year-90-days-is-plenty-of-time-to-decide-22637994 Wed, 01 Jul 2009 02:41:07 EDT Re: 1 year + 90 days is plenty of time to decide http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-1-year-90-days-is-plenty-of-time-to-decide-22637064
Either way I totally agree with you about how the FCC should be structured.

Exactly. Many, many bills proposed by some very consumer-oriented Democrats (like Rep. Eric Massa) are frequently gutted and mangled by Republicans, and Democrats have to compromise to have any hope of getting the bill through.

Not that Democrats themselves are perfect, but their philosophy is by and large much less corporation-favoring than Republicans.

I wonder who was in charge of Congress last year.
maybe some republicans added some garbage that had nothing to do with the bill and that's why it went no where.

The FCC still hasn't fixed their "deemed granted" rule, which gives baby bells automatic approval if the agency can't agree on a decision within one year plus a 90 day extension.
This rule doesn't need fixing. That amount of time is plenty for a bureaucracy, even one as screwed up as the FCC, to make a decision. All government agencies need to have their feet held to the fire to make them be responsive and timely in their decisions.
Easy solution: any request not ruled upon within 1 year + a 90 extention is deemed denied.
There was an act introduced in Congress this year to address your concerns. But it doesn't reverse the deemed approved to deemed denied. It forces the FCC to rule one way or the other within the 1yr+90 timeframe.
Protecting Consumers Through Proper Forbearance Procedures Act, H.R. 400, 111th Cong. (2009)
(proposing to delete the deemed grant language in Section 10(c) and replace it with the requirement that the
Commission grant or deny a forbearance petition within the one year, plus 90-day extension, timeframe).
The bill has been sitting in Committee since Jan:
»thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z···r.00400:
Text of bill: »thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.400:

Of course, there is nothing in the bill laying out penalties on the FCC if they neither approve nor deny a petition. Maybe if they added that the FCC commissioners go to prison for 6 months if they refuse to act. That would make me happy.

The FCC doesn't need a "fire" to keep it peppy. It needs less Republicans nominating people who cater to special-interests.

Unfortunately the FCC has done all it can for the forebearance issue. It's up to Congress to go on from here.

A year ago a bill was proposed in Congress in an attempt to fix the problem, but the bill went nowhere. Hopefully someone can resuscitate the bill.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-1-year-90-days-is-plenty-of-time-to-decide-22635610 Tue, 30 Jun 2009 16:16:56 EDT 1 year + 90 days is plenty of time to decide http://www.dslreports.com/forum/1-year-90-days-is-plenty-of-time-to-decide-22635556 The FCC still hasn't fixed their "deemed granted" rule, which gives baby bells automatic approval if the agency can't agree on a decision within one year plus a 90 day extension.This rule doesn't need fixing.
