.@APCOIntl has serious concerns with the immediate impact of the @FCC's recent 6 GHz order on public safety communications. We felt compelled to file petitions for reconsideration and stay. Read about it in our recent blog: https://www.apcointl.org/new-fcc-spectrum-rules-put-public-safety-communications-at-risk/

It's National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week and I’d like to recognize all the 911 dispatchers in Maryland and across the country—your calm voice on the phone offers comfort and help, especially now. Thank you for the work you do. #NPSTW https://twitter.com/JRosenworcel/status/1249776629301288962

It's National Public Safety Telecommunications Week. Time to thank our nation's 911 operators for their work in this crisis. Before an ambulance races or a whistle on a fire station blows it's a 911 professional who takes calls and sets emergency response in action. #ThankYou911

Perfectly stated. Thank you for your continued leadership and support.

#TBT to my @911LAPD visit with @FCC Commissioner @JRosenworcel. This National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, we must make it clear that 911 dispatchers are not clerical workers & should be classified to recognize their sacrifices and dedication to public safety. #NPSTW2020 https://twitter.com/NormaJTorres/status/1041832128512765957
