“Because the agency is currently funded under a Continuing Resolution that runs through February 15, the FCC’s statutorily-required monthly meeting has been moved from February 21 to February 14,” said a news release. The February meeting items previously scheduled for this coming Wednesday include a caller-ID spoofing NPRM, an IP captioned telephone service order, and a media modernization order on equal employment opportunity reports.
Because of the shutdown, Wednesday's meeting won't have votes on those items.
