Quotable
“We sorely need a full FCC. They have a big job. Consider the new maps, broadband consumer labels, ACP, ECF and many other responsibilities. They cannot do this without Gigi Sohn representing the digital equity community. I urge the Senate to confirm her nomination before the holiday recess… Internet access and the skills to use that are not only essential to survive, but to thrive—and thriving is essential to America’s promise to the wellbeing of its people and the country’s ability to compete globally.”
– USTelecom President/CEO Jonathan Spalter at a Senate Communications Subcommittee hearing on the nation’s broadband needs
