Sorenson Communications Applauds Confirmation of Two New Commissioners to Federal Communications Commission

(firmenpresse) - SALT LAKE CITY, UT -- (Marketwire) -- 05/07/12 -- Sorenson Communications®, the nation's leading provider of Video Relay Services (VRS) for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals who use sign language to communicate, applauded today's Senate confirmation of Ajit Pai and Jessica Rosenworcel to serve on the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Congress has directed the FCC to ensure that the telecommunications services available to the deaf and hearing-impaired are functionally equivalent to services available to the hearing. As Americans enjoy the benefits of broadband services and other technological developments, this statutory mandate has become more important than ever to the deaf and hard-of-hearing.

Mike Maddix, Director of Government and Regulatory Affairs for Sorenson Communications, commented: "Sorenson is pleased that the FCC is now fully staffed with commissioners. We congratulate the two new commissioners, Ajit Pai and Jessica Rosenworcel, and look forward to working with them on important issues related to relay services for the deaf and hard-of-hearing."

Sorenson Communications' mission is to break down communication barriers by offering the highest-quality communication products and services to all deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals. The Sorenson videophones, ntouch® suite of products and Sorenson Video Relay Service® have revolutionized communication for deaf and hard-of-hearing people who use sign language to communicate and ushered in a new era of communications for them.

Sorenson Communications® () is a provider of industry-leading communications services and products. The company's offerings include Sorenson Video Relay Service® (SVRS®), the highest-quality video interpreting service; the Sorenson (VP-100® and VP-200®) videophones; Sorenson IP Relay® (SIPRelay), enabling text-to-speech relay communication; and Sorenson Video Remote Interpreting™ (VRI), a fee-based remote interpreting service.
