Jessica Rosenworcel: “I'm worried that we are losing localism in broadcasting.”

I want to acknowledge that the Emergency Connectivity Fund, championed by Chairman Van Hollen, has also been instrumental in closing the digital divide.

I signed a memorandum of understanding with the Department of Commerce because they have a lot of programs like BEAD.

Congress set aside funding for it but those funds are not sufficient to fully fund reimbursement.

I strongly support identifying a way to fund the Affordable Connectivity Program into the future to help more families get and stay connected to the high-speed Internet they need to participate in modern life.
