Spectrum is incredibly valuable.

we are going to enhance the Mobility Fund to ensure we support small wireless providers serving in rural areas.

I think updating the Spectrum Relocation Fund so that it will fund those projects would be great help.

Lifeline has the potential to help alleviate this problem.

it is also important that we make sure that everyone has opportunities to bid in this upcoming auction.

With respect to retransmission consent, I think I agree with Senator Pryor, we may not be able to solve that today.

We have made the program so complicated that small and rural schools are having a hard time applying.

I know he knows how important it is for all Americans, no matter who they are or where they live, to have access to modern communications.

There is work to do every day to make sure that our rural communities are not left behind.
