Quotable

“We need to figure out how to work our way to good policy outcomes on telecommunications while operating under an environment that’s very dysfunctional. I spent a lot of time working with members of Congress over the last five, six years on the mapping issues and it was from the wireless side. But you know, we were actually able to drive bipartisan agreement… so my goal is to really operate underneath the heavy fire that’s going on in Washington to get public policy outcomes for us that are favorable to our members, and a lot of that in the next couple of years is going to be broadband-related. The IIJA BEAD money… headed out to the states presents challenges and opportunities for many of our members and I want to make sure that the government agencies and the governors follow the clearly outlined rules in the federal law and then give all of our members a fair shake.”
