Petition published by Adminstrator on May 04, 2007
Target: Congressman Michael Arcuri and NY State Senators Charles Shumer and Hillary Clinton.
Region: United States of America
Web site: http://www.UticaHDTV.com
Petition Background (Preamble):
This petition is to amend or otherwise change current laws and FCC rules and regulations that prohibit competition among broadcast television stations.
This started as a local campaign in an attempt to garner a good faith response from the broadcast companies within the Utica market in order to grant permission so the local cable provider could bring high definition signals into the market.

Petition:
We, the undersigned, call upon our Elected Official to effect changes to the laws and regulations that block competition and prevent choices in the television marketplace.
We ask for changes to at the very minimum allow HDTV signals to be imported when a local affiliate does not offer it until such a time that the local affiliate is capable of offering it.
