Excessive intrastate inmate calling rates have serious consequences. I got an email from a NY woman with a family member incarcerated in-state. I asked our team to look into it. She was charged >2x for a 10-minute call than allowed under @FCC interstate caps. That’s not right. https://t.co/CVVmj1Lf70 — PolitiTweet.org

Current law bars the @FCC from regulating intrastate inmate calling services rates. These rates can be outrageous—for example, 27 states allow “1st-minute” charges up to *26 times* the 1st minute of an interstate call. I'm calling on states to take action. https://t.co/3rm2ycEwCA https://t.co/x7U3oI4V0G — PolitiTweet.org

The state regulators' association has often argued that the @FCC has no power here. And it says "we all have a moral obligation to do more" to address discrimination. So: the time has come for these sentiments to manifest in state *action* for the incarcerated and their families. https://t.co/E1CvFsyjs0 — PolitiTweet.org
