On September 15, 2025, the FCC issued Public Notice DA 25-840 announcing the proposed Universal Service Contribution Factor for the 4th Quarter of 2025 will be 38.1%.

Effective October of 2025, the amount of the Federal Universal Service appearing on your bill each month will increase as a result of an increase in the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC’s) universal service fund contribution factor. This factor may change quarterly, depending on actions taken by the FCC. The Federal Universal Service Fund is designed to help keep local service rates affordable for all customers in all areas of the United States and to provide schools, libraries and healthcare facilities discounted communications services.
