Unelected Bureaucrats Reign: The FCC’s E-Rate Victory

from Business Law 101 · host David D. Schein

The Supreme Court sided with the FCC in the Consumers' Research case, upholding the E-rate program. This means unelected bureaucrats can continue to levy fees and control billions, a blow to efforts to rein in the administrative state & ensure accountability.  Thanks for joining me for this episode! I’m a Houston- based attorney, run an HR Consulting company called Claremont Management Group, and am a tenured professor at the University of St. Thomas. I’ve also written several non-fiction political commentary books: Bad Deal for America (2022) explores the Vegas-style corruption running rampant in Washington DC, while The Decline of America: 100 Years of Leadership Failures (2018) analyzes – and grades – the leadership qualities of the past 100 years of U.S. presidents. You can find my books on Amazon, and me on social media (Twitter @DSchein1, LinkedIn @DavidSchein, and Facebook, Instagram, & YouTube @AuthorDavidSchein). I’d love to hear from you! As always, the opinions expressed in this podcast are mine and my guests’ and not the opinions of my university, my company, or the businesses with which I am connected. Photo Credits: VinkFan; 3000ad; Motionium; AnnaStills; KurArt; Silverman Media Services, LLC
