FEBRUARY 7, 1995

ACTION ALERT...911 EMERGENCY SERVICES IN JEOPARDY FOR CELLULAR PHONE 
USERS...

Cellular phone users throughout the country could have their 911 
emergency access in jeopardy if action is not taken immediately.  The 
FCC issued a proposed rulemaking on October 19, 1994 to look into the 
matter of revising FCC rules and regulations to ensure compatibility 
to 911 enhanced services. 

Comments to the FCC from concerned citizens will be accepted until
February 8, 1995.  Your action is greatly needed on this matter if 911
services are to be accessible by all cellular users. Please do not wait
until a natural or other disaster strikes before you realize how 
valuable full accessibility to 911 emergency services is for all 
citizens. 

To learn how to take immediate action on this issue:
