About 75% of older Americans still have landlines in their homes. Some are used to connecting to other services, but other people do use the landline to make calls. A Houston family said they don't want the phone mess they are dealing with to happen to others, so they called KPRC 2 Investigates for help. https://tinyurl.com/wcmamcad

The company was a big ally to President Trump and drove most of his telecom policy (which was basically to give AT&T everything it wants). AT&T has a long, long record of supporting politicians who oppose civil rights and supported the January 6 insurrection. They even funded and helped create OAN. https://tinyurl.com/2wpx22uy
