Telecommunications

This is the new economic infrastructure of the 21st century, and the state needs to maintain an environment conducive to additional private sector investment. The state needs to:

• Avoid any new or additional state or local tax or fee on telecommunications services
  
  
• Adopt legislation to prohibit state regulation of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology
  
  
• Review and repeal unnecessary, costly and burdensome state regulations on telecomm service providers
