Plain-English summary
Uncap America Act
This bill generally prohibits broadband internet service providers from capping the amount of data that customers may download or upload without being subject to additional costs or reduced internet speeds. Broadband internet service providers may, however, impose a data cap if the cap is tailored primarily to address network management or congestion.
The Federal Communications Commission must issue regulations that define what constitutes a tailored data cap and otherwise enforce the prohibition.
