Broadband Legislative Battle
Heavy-Hitters Join Pro-Municipal
Broadband Legislative Battle
06/24/2005 10:01 PM Dell, Intel, Texas Instruments, and others want more broadband to
sell more gear to consumers: They've increasingly gotten involved in
the ongoing debate over whether incumbent monopolies and duopolies
deserve right of first refusal for broadband deployment in their
service areas over municipalities because of incumbents' investments,
municipalities' tax-free and bond-raising abilities, and the role of
government in competing with private enterprise. The Wall Street
Journal walks through the issue, starting with a small town in Texas
that's building broadband because SBC can't or won't. The Texas
legislature was considering a telecom "reform" bill--a bill which
removed many public service and oversight controls on telcos--that
would also have banned municipalities from participating in broadband.
The original bill was so broad it would have banned virtually all
private-public partnerships that the FCC and the Bush Administration
have stressed for extending broadband into the furthest reaches of the
country. The backlash is now coming since Texas's bill hit defeat for
a variety of reasons, partly including Dell's founder picking up the
phone and calling legislators. You see, computer makers would enjoy
selling more equipment and one way to do that is broadband. (Homes
with broadband connections tend to buy newer equipment and more
computers, among other reasons.) Pete Sessions (R-Texas) has
introduced a bill at the national level to pre-empt local legislation
(there's that anti-federalism again) governing municipal operation of
broadband. Sessions is the representative from SBC: a former employee
with huge stock and stock options held directly (not in trust) with a
spouse who currently works there. His chief of staff told the Wall
Street Journal that "the congressman's ties to SBC do not present a
conflict of interest." Except in that he has millions of dollars at
stake over SBC's continued performance in the market....
