FCC to Hold Jan. 30 Meeting Without Agenda Items

The FCC will hold its scheduled commissioners’ meeting Jan. 30 but without the planned agenda items, the agency said in a release Wednesday. “Due to the current partial lapse in appropriations, the items previously set forth in the January 3, 2019 Tentative Agenda will not be considered at the meeting,” the release said. If the shutdown continues through Tuesday, the meeting will be held via conference call, the release said. If the shutdown ends and the FCC “resumes normal operations” before Tuesday, the meeting will be held in the Commission Meeting Room, consisting of “announcements only” rather than the agenda items, the agency said.
