| Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Wireline Competition Bureau | The FCC Wireline Competition Bureau is responsible for administering the regulatory agency’s policies concerning telephone companies that provide long distance and local service to consumers. These companies provide services such as voice, data and other telecommunication transmission services to consumers. The Wireline Competition Bureau ensures all consumers have rapid, efficient, nationwide and worldwide access to these services at reasonable rates. As competition grows and new technologies are introduced into the marketplace, the Bureau seeks to eliminate unnecessary regulatory burdens on carriers while protecting the interests of consumers. |
