S 2083 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act exempting prepaid wireless customers from E911 fees

This bill proposes to exempt prepaid wireless phone users in Massachusetts from paying Emergency 911 fees. The change would modify an existing state law to exclude prepaid service plans from the current fee structure that applies to other wireless customers. By removing this specific sentence from the statute, the legislation aims to reduce costs for individuals who rely on prepaid mobile plans.
