I just encourage all of us to think about children, about the problems they face, and about our responsibility to help them navigate their way through those waters.
We would not have connectivity and all that it brings to our schools and libraries if it were not for E-Rate.
I do want to acknowledge the bipartisan effort and support for the E-Rate Program by Chairman Rockefeller and Maine's original E-Rate champion, Olympia Snowe.
What is needed is honest, fact-based discussion and a genuine bipartisan commitment to solutions.
