Our Commission is working hard to promote the availability of telecommunications
services to individuals on tribal lands. At the FCC, we recognize that the
telecommunications penetration rate on many tribal lands falls far below the
national average. We have taken a series of steps, through regulatory action,
consumer information and tribal outreach, to address the lack of
telecommunications deployment and subscribership throughout Indian Country. We
hope you will find our Tribal pages at http://www.fcc.gov/indians/ to be a valuable
resource.
