SAN FRANCISCO, California -- The California Public Utilities Commission is set to vote next month on a proposal to tax text messages.
State regulators say the money would be used to support programs that provide phone service to the poor.
It's unclear how much you'd have to pay per message.
The wireless industry and business groups are fighting the plan.

There’s something in the water in California that enables legislators to envision taxes that would never cross the minds of other Americans.
How about a tax on … text messages? People send a lot of text messages, right? Let’s tax those!
