***** AT&T is attempting to bypass the
CPUC and abandon their landline obligations, via Assembly Bill AB 2797 in California *****

Despite the CPUC voting unanimously today to reject the AT&T proposal to abandon its carrier of last resort obligations, they are still pushing California Assembly Bill AB 2797 that would effectively bypass the CPUC and screw California subscribers in very much the same way.

The California State Association of Counties, Rural County Representatives of California, and Urban Counties of California a week ago said that they oppose the bill.
