  "textContent": "WASHINGTON, Feb. 12, 2026 – The wireless association CTIA is renewing its opposition to Federal Communications Commission Chairman **Brendan Carr’s** proposal to allow state and local prisons to jam contraband cell phones, arguing the move poses serious interference risks and is unnecessary given existing alternatives.\n\nIn a Tuesday, Feb. 10 letter to the Commission, the wireless trade group said, “the record reveals a wide variety of commenters who emphasize that jamming is an unwarranted interference risk to legitimate communications in light of other safe and effective solutions already available.”\n\nCTIA further stressed that “no commenter offered any explanation or technical description of how jamming can be deployed without blocking legitimate communications.”\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
