Alabama fights against reducing prison phone rates: ‘We need that connection,’ inmate’s sister says
“The cost of a 15-minute phone call will drop to $0.90 from as much as $11.35 in large jails and, in small jails, to $1.35 from $12.10," the FCC said.
Alabama fights against reducing prison phone rates: ‘We need that connection,’ inmate’s sister says
Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall is one of 14 Republican attorney generals that have joined a lawsuit to block federal caps on prices for telecommunications in prisons and jails.
The attorney generals representing their respective states argued in a filing Monday that the Federal Communication Commission’s rule to cap phone call charges was an “abuse to discretion†and “contrary to law.â€Â
In July, the FCC passed a rule to lower phone and video call rates for incarcerated people. In a press release, the commission explained how much the rule would cut costs.
“The Federal Communications Commission today voted to end exorbitant phone and video call rates that have burdened incarcerated people and their families for decades,†the FCC said.
“Under the new rules, the cost of a 15-minute phone call will drop to $0.90 from as much as $11.35 in large jails and, in small jails, to $1.35 from $12.10.â€Â
The states also argued that cutting communication costs reduces revenue for the prisons and jails. Two lawsuits filed earlier this year in Michigan allege that there is a kickback scheme ongoing between county governments and prison phone companies.
