Olympia Snowe: “It's been fabulous support from this committee for JPSS, and we are extremely pleased at the conference report.”

What is needed is honest, fact-based discussion and a genuine bipartisan commitment to solutions.

Thank you. I will be a fast talker. And I want to thank all of you for your very impressive testimony.

The E-Rate program has fundamentally transformed education in this country.

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.
