Olympia Snowe: “So a prompt payment is immediate?”

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.

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.

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