*New Report:* *Building Constituencies for Spectrum Policy Change: * *Wireless Broadband and Public Needs* *Free download available now:* _http://www.newamerica.net/publications/policy/building_constituencies_for_sp... New wireless networks and technologies could improve the lives of all communities--rural and urban, low-income, young and old, Native, immigrant, disabled people and all those who are continually excluded or underserved by current systems. But there is no guarantee it will happen that way: * What kinds of policies are needed to make sure that all people can benefit from these new developments? * How can we best activate the public and persuade policy-makers to put the right policies in place? "Building Constituencies for Spectrum Policy Change: Wireless Broadband and Public Needs" brings together the insights of 14 advocates and organizers who work on behalf of communities around the US. The New America Foundation convened this "Stakeholder Strategy Committee" to engage these issues to help guide their own work and the work of other public-interest colleagues and allies. This first report is a capture of ongoing conversations, not a blueprint for action or a consensus platform. Rather, it is intended as a resource to public advocates, community organizers, nonprofit groups and funders who want to help ensure that the future of media and telecommunications is designed to meet the needs of all people and communities.
