They already have that. If you look on your phone bill's list of fees, you'll see one for 911. It's not $10, but it's there.

- chipperyman573 8y agoWhen I read that I always assumed that was a fee that went to the 911 call centers to fund them (paying the people who answered the phones, renting the land they're based out of, etc). Does the entire fee go directly to the phone company?
- chx 8y agoHere's the relevant California legislation for example (it's regulated at state level): https://law.justia.com/codes/california/2005/rtc/41135-41142.html https://law.justia.com/codes/california/2005/rtc/41135-41142... it's pretty straightforward as to where the monies go.
