SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Proposed Agenda: The agenda for the meeting

Empowerment and Inclusion Working Group will present a report including 
recommendations for addressing digital discrimination and other 
barriers that impact equitable access to broadband and other emerging 
technology in under-served and under-connected communities. The 
Innovation and Access Working Group will report on its activities to 
recommend solutions to reduce entry barriers and encourage ownership 
and management of media, digital, communications services and next-
generation technology properties and start-ups to encourage viewpoint 
diversity by a broad range of voices. The Diversity and Equity Working 
Group will report on its progress in examining how the FCC can 
affirmatively advance equity, civil rights, racial justice, and equal 
opportunity in the telecommunications industry to address inequalities 
in workplace employment policies and programs. This agenda may be 
modified at the discretion of the CEDC Chair and the DFO.
