CHAIRMAN JULIUS GENACHOWSKI
Re: Rates for Interstate Inmate Calling Services, WC Docket No. 12-375
I’m pleased that we’re moving forward with today’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on interstate 
prison phone rules and rates.  I want to particularly thank Commissioner Clyburn for her leadership on 
this important issue, which affects the families of inmates, prisoner rehabilitation, and prison security.  I 
look forward to working with my colleagues and all stakeholders as we move forward.
