Briefings

A letter from Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) on October 8, 2026, alleges Trump Mobile failed to secure necessary FCC authorizations for international calling and lacks a required plan to combat robocalls. While Liberty Mobile Wireless filed a partial robocall database, it was incomplete. The letter references a prior incident where a vendor exposed customer data, and notes a security report involving 3,615 stolen customer records. The investigation remains ongoing with no confirmed resolution.
