Public Service Recognition Week 2014

We had an “all-hands” meeting of Federal Communications Commission staff to talk about the agency’s priorities and to provide an update on the Commission’s recent activities.

But the most important message I wanted to convey to FCC staff at this meeting was “thank you.” The public servants of the FCC -- and across government at all levels -- work every day on behalf of the American people with little or no fanfare.

The week is dedicated to making sure public servants across the country get the recognition they deserve. That’s because this is Public Service Recognition Week -- an annual celebration of the men and women who serve the United States as federal, state, county and local government employees.
