Sender: "Audrie Krause" <•••@••.•••> Andy - Thank you for posting information about the FCC proceeding on universal service. Cyber-Rights participants may be interested in knowing that the CPSR Board of Directors has okayed our signing onto comments in support of an extension of the FCC's April 8 deadline for filing comments on universal service issues. In addition, a draft policy paper on universal service issues that was prepared by Karen Coyle, chair of CPSR's Berkeley chapter, is currently under review and may become the basis for CPSR comments on this issue. I would encourage people intersted in this issue to contact Karen for a copy of her paper. Her email address is: •••@••.••• There is also a coalition forming in Washington of organizations concerned about extending the deadline and/or filing comments. Please contact me at the National Office if you have an interest in participating in this effort.
