50 years in telecom. Just think about that.

When Marty Rubin got into this business in 1976, a “mobile phone” weighed a couple of pounds, a long-distance call was still an event, and the internet as we know it didn’t exist.

Today, we carry the world in our pockets, connect at gigabit speeds, and are building networks to power an innovation-driven future.

Marty has had a front-row seat to one of the greatest technology transformations in history, and helped shape it along the way.

Congratulations to our friend at Smart City Telecom on an incredible 50 years in telecom. Here’s to what comes next. 📞➡️📱➡️🌐

$1 doesn’t sound like much – until it’s charged for every foot of a fiber build.

In Stark County, Ohio, Lumos Fiber was forced to cancel a planned fiber network build because of absurd per-foot charges, inspection fees, and survey requirements.

These types of permitting headaches cause hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses in America to go without high-quality fiber broadband Internet.

Spending on back-to-school supplies costs can stack up.

One expense families don't have to be concerned about this school year? Fiber home internet. Prices are down, speeds are up, and homework gets done.

Phone scams are more than just annoying – they can lead to serious financial losses.

Scammers use urgency, pressure, and manipulation to trick Americans into giving away their hard-earned money. That’s why combatting illegal robocalls and scams requires coordination across industry, government, and law enforcement.

Before you answer a suspicious call, listen for these red flags.

America’s biggest barrier to expanding internet connectivity isn’t innovative technology or investment – it’s outdated, slow permitting processes.

USTelecom President and CEO Jonathan Spalter testified before the Senate Commerce Subcommittee on Telecommunications and Media to deliver a clear message: the biggest barrier holding back connectivity is outdated and slow permitting.

Broadband internet providers have invested $2.2 trillion into America’s networks since 1996 – and stand by ready to build.

It’s time to reform permitting processes so we can connect more Americans.
