On January 11, 2012, .JOBS Charter Coalition chairman John Bell asked the [[ICANN Board]] through its chairman [[Steve Crocker]] to block Employ Media and Direct Employers Association from participating in the [[New gTLD Program|new gTLD expansion program]]. Bell cited Employ Media's should be automatically disqualified from the program because of its ''"history of abuse" for violating its charter. Bell also criticized ICANN's failure to resolve the complaints against the .jobs registry operator.According to Bell, "ICANN frequently proclaims its dedication to contractual compliance and asserts that the new gTLD program contains multiple stakeholder protection mechanisms, but based on ICANN's mismanagement of the current dot-jobs TLD dispute, the Internet community is rightly concerned that ICANN's public statements will once again prove to be empty words."'' Bell stated that ICANN can only regain a measure of regulatory authority by publicly excluding Employ Media and Direct Employers Association from participating in the new gTLD program.<ref> | On January 11, 2012, .JOBS Charter Coalition chairman John Bell asked the [[ICANN Board]] through its chairman [[Steve Crocker]] to block Employ Media and Direct Employers Association from participating in the [[New gTLD Program|new gTLD expansion program]].
