Maybe I can't read <g>, but it appears there was an amendment in favor of CLEC. In reverse chronological order: 4:27 P.M. - Amendment offered by Mr. Tauzin. Pursuant to the instructions contained in the previously agreed to motion to recommit, Mr. Tauzin reported the bill back to the House with an amendment consisting of the text of amendments numbered 2 and 3 printed in part B of House Report 107-361. On motion to recommit with instructions, as amended Agreed to by voice vote. On motion to amend the Markey motion to recommit with instructions Agreed to by voice vote. 4:19 P.M. - AMENDMENT TO MARKEY MOTION - The Buyer amendment to the original Markey motion to recommit with instructions seeks to include the provisions of amendment numbered 3 printed in part B of House Report 107-361. Amendment numbered 3 guarantees that CLECs have access to customers served by Bell company high speed networks under FCC-regulated rates, terms, and conditions. The amendment preserves rules governing CLECs access to Bell facilities, including a rule that permits CLECs to "line share" on Bell copper facilities exclusively for the purpose of providing high speed internet service. Finally, it requires Bell companies to allow CLECs to connect their own high speed Internet facilities to Bell services and equipment.
