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

opportunity in the telecommunications industry to address inequalities
in workplace employment policies and programs. This agenda may be
