Under the NET 911 Improvement Act, which of the following is a stated objective?

• A. Promote rapid deployment of IP-enabled 911 and E911 services
• B. Encourage the transition to a national IP-enabled emergency network
• C. Improve 911 and E911 access for people with disabilities
• D. Provide exclusive funding for rural PSAPs

Answer: (C)

The main idea the NET 911 Improvement Act emphasizes is ensuring accessibility of 911 and E911 for people with disabilities. The Act directs how 911 systems must accommodate individuals with hearing or speech disabilities and other accessibility needs as the emergency communications landscape moves toward IP-enabled services. This focus on making 911 usable by everyone—regardless of disability—drives the objective.

That’s why improving 911 and E911 access for people with disabilities is the best choice. While modernizing to IP-enabled networks and broader deployment are important themes in the 911 modernization effort, the Act’s stated purpose centers on accessibility, not on exclusive rural funding or mere deployment speed.
