**Preventing Digital Discrimination**
	The Commission considered a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking that would take the next step in the Commission’s efforts to promote equal access to broadband by seeking comment on potential rules to address digital discrimination of access to broadband, consistent with Congress’s direction in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. (GN Docket No. 22-69)
	
	**Satellite Application Processing**
	The Commission considered a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeking comment on changes to its rules, policies, or practices to facilitate the acceptance for filing of satellite and earth station applications under Part 25 to help Commission processing stay apace with the number of innovative satellite applications in the new space age. (IB Docket No. 22-411, 22-271)
	
	**Improving Wireless 911 Call Routing**
	The Commission considered a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking regarding a proposal to require wireless carriers and covered text providers to implement location-based routing on their networks in order to reduce misrouting of wireless 911 calls and texts and improve emergency response times. (PS Docket No. 18-64)
	
	**Improving Accessible Phone Services**
	The Commission considered a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and Order on Reconsideration to propose Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS) Fund compensation for Internet Protocol Captioned Telephone Service (IP CTS), propose a technical amendment to the compensation formula for Internet Protocol Relay Service (IP Relay), and resolve petitions for reconsideration of a prior order setting IP CTS compensation. (CG Docket Nos. 22-408, 03-123, 13-24)
	
	**Proposed Fine Against Auto Warranty Scam Robocaller**
	The Commission considered a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture which proposes a nearly $300 Million fine against Cox/Jones Enterprise for apparently violating federal anti-robocalling and spoofing laws with a robocall scheme that made more than 5 billion robocalls to more than half a billion phone numbers during a three-month span in 2021.
