Both the House and Senate have passed a $1.65 trillion omnibus spending bill that should assure that federal-government agencies will be funded through September, but the legislation does not include funding for IP-based next-generation 911 (NG911) deployments or long-term authority for the FCC to conduct spectrum auctions.
When someone calls 911, they expect the quickest response possible from first responders.
Unfortunately that expectation is not always met in Seattle when it comes to medical emergencies, that is, if your address is on a list of addresses responders are told to wait for police before entering.

Federal funding to pay much of the cost to transition 911 centers to IP-based next-generation 911 (NG911) technology is not included in the $1.7 trillion omnibus funding bill that many in Congress hope to pass prior to Friday’s government-shutdown deadline.
Comtech announced today that, in partnership with the National Emergency Number Association (NENA: The 9-1-1 Association), it will be honoring America’s 9-1-1 professionals during the 2022 SERVPRO First Responder Bowl in Dallas, Texas on Dec. 27. The game will be broadcast live nationwide on ESPN.
