Clemmons Suspended from E-Rate Program

Shawn Clemmons was suspended from the schools and libraries universal service support mechanism (the E-Rate Program) and from all universal service support mechanisms as of the suspension letter released April 13, 2026. The suspension prevents him from receiving program benefits while the FCC considers debarment, and this could affect contracts and funding tied to schools and libraries.

Contractors Can File Opposition

If you have an existing contract with Shawn Clemmons or plan to contract with him, you may file an opposition request supported by documentation within 30 days of receiving the suspension letter or by May 13, 2026, whichever comes first.
