    Millions are relying on *Parking-Lot Wi-Fi* in this crisis. That’s when cars pull into lots at closed libraries and coffee shops because it’s the only place to go for a free signal to go online for work, school and more. We need to do better. We need a plan for broadband for all.

    You may only call 911 once in your life, but it will be the most important call you ever make. So the FCC is now working to understand when and why 911 outages occur (and who gets notified when they do) so that we can help prevent them in the future.

    This morning an American space shuttle cut through the air over the Florida coast and rocketed four astronauts into orbit. Awesome. Proud that the FCC played a small role by helping make available the spectrum needed for launch communications.

    The robocall crackdown continues. We're requiring all carriers to report to the FCC exactly what they're doing to stop illegal robocalls. We're going to figure out who is doing what and what more needs to be done to bring an end to these abusive calls.
