Concerned Cable Customers!
Cable customers across the country continue to be frustrated with the increasing cost to their cable bills each year. MHTC’s increase was driven primarily by the Broadcast stations, more commonly referred to as local stations. We, like all cable companies, would like to change the process and rules that affect the Broadcast station negotiation, but it requires federal law changes. If you would like to help us change this process please see the information below on how you can contact your congressional representatives. Together we can make a difference.

As a consumer of cable television I am supporting my local cable company MH Telecom dba MHTC and asking you to support U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint and U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise’s bill addressing Retransmission Consent regulation. The regulation affecting the charges to cable TV companies and ultimately me the consumer needs to be reviewed and modernized.
I urge you to support the Next Generation TV Marketplace Act to better serve the interests of consumers.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
