Pennsylvania’s Attorney General recently announced a couple of agreements that will benefit residents across the state.
First, Josh Shapiro announced that telecommunications provider Comcast has agreed to delay usage-based data overage charges to existing customers until July. This delay is expected to benefit parents and students as well as allow customers wishing to terminate service to do so without charging the normal termination fees.
Shapiro also announced that a large settlement with a consulting firm will result in nearly $26 million to help address the ongoing opioid epidemic in Pennsylvania. The settlement 47 states entered into with McKinsey and Company follows an investigation into the company’s role in helping opioid companies promote their drugs. McKinsey advised opioid manufacturers like Purdue on how to get physicians to prescribe more OxyContin to more patients. McKinsey must disclose many internal documents for the public to view online.
