FCC wasn’t able to cap intrastate prices until Congress granted new authority.
Countdown until a conservative judge overturns this: 10, 9, 8…

The lashing out from republicans will commence shortly
They’re going to say that the FCC is overstepping its bounds because it exists.
Unconstitutional!
We could be charging them $50 a minute.
“Those people made their choice!”
A while ago my credit card number was stolen and the only charges were calls from prisons and I wasn’t even mad.
The game changer about this ruling is that the prisons can no longer charge their often 80% commissions on each call. This is going to make the “for profit” prisons crazy. (State prisons too).
Awesome. Do something about the slave labor prisoners have to do in some states next. Then maybe fix commissary account fees and prices. And make sure prisoners can get mail, including books, since some prisons are banning that now. Prisons are currently an insight into exactly how hard corporations would screw us all over if they had more control of our lives.
Supporting big criminal over small mom and pop private prisons again, smh
Some assclown judge from Texas no doubt
