One day before the opening of the [[New gTLD Program|new gTLD expansion program]], John Bell chairman of the coalition, wrote to ICANN Chairman [[Steve Crocker|Stephen Crocker]] to request the ICANN Board to exclude Employ Media in the application for new TLDs. Bell cited the .jobs TLD registry operator is not qualified due to its "history of abuse" based on the new gTLD protections mechanism. In addition, he also criticized ICANN's mismanagement of the .jobs TLD dispute and expressed fears that the internet governing body might not be able to fulfill its promise to the internet community to disqualify the applications of rogue TLD operators. Furthermore, he said that ICANN can only regain a measure of regulatory authority by publicly blocking Employ Media and Direct Employers Association from participating in the new gTLD program.<ref>[http://news.dot-nxt.com/2012/01/11/dot-jobs-could-kill-icann The case study that could kill ICANN]</ref>
