We need to focus on a 21st century goal, which is high-speed broadband to schools.
Congresswoman, the reality is that for decades, we have been regulating the use of network information in the telephone network saying a phone company cannot make it available to a third party without the consumers' permission.
$267 million went back into the pockets of consumers who had been bilked because they were charged for things they did not buy.
if the citizens of a community want to organize through their local government to say, to bring competition in broadband provision, they should not be inhibited.
