Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. Subject Line: Urgent Follow-up: Request for Cable Rate Regulation from Concerned Residents of Maryland Dear [Mayor's Name] and [Board of Aldermen], We hope this letter finds you well. We, the undersigned residents of Maryland, are writing to follow up on our previous correspondence regarding cable rate regulation in our region. As an extension of our original concerns shared on [date of initial letter], we would like to emphasize the urgency of addressing this matter to protect the interests of Maryland households. With the continuous increase in cable service costs, our community is burdened with unaffordable bills and limited options. The lack of cable rate regulation allows service providers to exploit their monopoly and manipulate prices at will, putting an unfair financial strain on households across Maryland. As responsible public officials, we believe it is crucial to take action and protect the rights and wellbeing of our constituents. It has come to our attention that several other states have successfully implemented cable rate regulations to protect their residents from excessive costs. For instance, New York and California have established regulatory bodies that monitor, investigate, and regulate cable rates to ensure their affordability and fairness. By adopting similar measures, Maryland can alleviate the financial struggles faced by countless families and individuals in our state. The benefits of cable rate regulation are twofold. Firstly, it will prevent unscrupulous practices that result in inflated prices, arbitrary fees, and sudden increases without any apparent justification. Secondly, it will promote healthy competition among service providers, leading to improved customer service and better packages tailored to the needs of Maryland residents. By implementing cable rate regulation in Maryland, we will empower our constituents to have affordable access to essential information, news, and entertainment sources. This, in turn, will enhance educational opportunities, facilitate access to current affairs, and foster a more informed and engaged citizenry. We, the undersigned individuals and organizations representing the voice of Maryland residents, kindly request your immediate attention to this matter. We urge you to explore the possibility of establishing a task force or commission to assess the cable rate regulation frameworks adopted by other states. By doing so, we can develop an appropriate regulatory model best suited to Maryland's unique needs. We remain confident that you understand the significance of this issue and its impact on the lives of your constituents. As public servants, we trust that you will diligently work towards a resolution that ensures fairness, affordability, and quality in cable services throughout Maryland. Thank you for your attention and anticipated action. We look forward to a favorable response that reflects the concerns and aspirations of Maryland residents. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] Copy: [Local Media Outlets] [Consumer Protection Agency] [State Representatives]
