December Legislative Policy Committee Call

Topics:

• Jodie or Karen:  Changes at the FCC, and what we may know now about federal (Congress) changes pending the two open Senate seats
• Joe B. and Daniel L.: Anything at the state legislature (2020) that our members care about?  (new aid package, anything in there for cities, any trickle down to MACTA MEMBERS?)
• Joe B: QUICK overview of what we know now about MN legislative make-up for 2021 after election (mainly who has the majorities and will lead the committees)
• [IF Mike and Mark are ready to share] Update on MACTA board’s plans for 2021-22 (education, outreach to legislature, seek solutions to revenues replacement for franchise and PEG fees…)
• Jodie could lead this, but members could participate:  Members sharing on franchise renewals and CenturyLink franchise early terminations.
