事件始末：最高法院维持USF
2025年6月27日，美国最高法院以6比3的票数裁定，联邦通信委员会（FCC）的普遍服务基金（USF）符合宪法。由保守派非营利组织“消费者研究”提出的挑战声称，这笔90亿美元的基金未经国会直接批准，构成了非法税收。但由大法官埃琳娜·卡根撰写的多数意见确认，国会已根据1996年《电信法》明确授权给FCC。
USF从电信提供商处收取费用，并分配资金以支持农村、低收入和部落地区以及学校和图书馆的电话和宽带接入。第五巡回上诉法院此前曾支持批评者，但最高法院推翻了该判决。卡根强调，国会为FCC的行动提供了可理解的原则，满足了宪法要求。
这一结果保留了一条关键的资金流，支持欠发达地区的数字公平，并在联邦监管机构面临更广泛司法审查之际，维护了机构的权威。 另见: FCC 以许可限制支持光纤建设者.

为何重要
最高法院的裁决确保了对FCC 90亿美元普遍服务基金的持续支持，这对农村和低收入社区来说是生命线。该基金使私营提供商不愿投资的地方能够接入宽带。对数百万人而言，它使在线学习、远程医疗和基本连接成为可能。没有它，数字鸿沟将加深，整个地区将被切断与基本数字基础设施的联系。 另见: Ofcom 揭露英国铁路移动覆盖差距.
该裁决还为依赖国会授权的类似计划提供了法律确定性。环境、教育和医疗补贴遵循类似于USF的结构。如果裁决不利于FCC，可能会破坏这些机制。通过维持该基金，最高法院避免了触发联邦监管框架的不稳定，并重申了非授权原则的限制。 另见: 罗伯特·纽沃斯.
从治理的角度看，这一裁决保护的不仅是一个项目，而是现代行政政策的运作。在对联邦机构信任下降的时代，这一决定强化了其运作空间——确保它们仍然能够应对基础设施、公平和接入等大规模挑战，而不受持续的司法阻碍。 另见: 欧盟重写人工智能基础设施主权规则.
