"At NENA, we must do whatever we can to educate policy makers and legislators on the importance of NG9-1-1 and the national commitment that will be required to build and maintain these networks," she said.
"Our job is to make sure both Congress and the President... are committed to funding and deploying NG9-1-1," Ms. Jaeger continued. "We will work with our nation's leaders to achieve what is in the best interest of all Americans - especially the nearly 1 million people who reach out to 9-1-1 every day."
