consumer protection

NACA joined a broad coalition letter to Congress opposing the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)'s order that would reverse its own net neutrality rule issued in 2016. The net neutrality rule was based on the principle that all data on the internet should be treated equally, and that internet service providers (ISPs) should not discriminate or provide preference to any data, regardless of its source, content, or destination.

NACA, other organizations wrote to the Uniform Law Commission’s (ULC) Drafting Committee to Revise the Uniform Unclaimed Property Act (UUPA) expressing concerns about some of the model bill’s provisions. The letter highlights the most blatantly anti-consumer provisions in the final UUPA, so that state legislatures can amend the UUPA to make it more consumer friendly before enacting it. State unclaimed property laws are meant to serve one fundamental purpose: ensure that people can recover property that rightfully belongs to them.

NACA joined other public interest groups in a letter to the House Energy & Commerce Committee expressing concern over legislation that would harm the Federal Trade Commission's ability to crack down on scam artists and protect consumers from unfair, misleading, or anticompetitive business practices.
