On August 24, 2017, Milwaukee Professionals Association LLC launched its 3-year case study called TINN - Team Internet Net Neutrality BROADBAND Initiative for the Underserved (urban and rural residential and commercial stakeholders) with a focus on the southeastern lowlands of Wisconsin located in cities of Milwaukee, Racine, and Kenosha.  

The Hearing Meeting will share findings of Year-One and highlight areas of disparity that lack Justice in Internet access.

The access, literacy, and use for Underserved Users is in part due to the lack of communication, continuity, and enforcement of resources available through the FCC/Federal Communication Commission and WI Public Service Commission.
