At its upcoming October Open Meeting, the @FCC will consider the #5GRuralFundforAmerica, a $9 billion fund for fast 5G deployment to rural America. Rural areas that lack even basic 4G coverage would be eligible to upgrade to 5G. https://t.co/VI6mTZ1u8z

It’s time for Congress to build out #broadband for farmers and the agriculture community to ensure competition in the digital age.

[American Dairy Coalition @Americandairyco]

Precision agriculture technologies that track, feed, and milk animals can increase efficiencies on operations. Yet, many farmers lack the connectivity to make this possible. Fortunately, @SenateCommerce is working to close the #DigitalDivide.

Congressional action to help close the #DigitalDivide will power new technologies for ag production. We are glad @SenateCommerce shares our desire to make universal broadband a reality while combating effects of #COVID19.

“Dairy farmers and processors don’t expect perfection, but we desperately need a program which will reduce the rising milk supply to prevent additional dumping of milk,” says American Dairy Coalition CEO Laurie Fischer in a recent opinion editorial.

Thank you Chairman Pai for working to close the #DigitalDivide in rural America! This billion-dollar investment is sorely needed in areas that lack even basic internet speeds. We commend the Chairman for prioritizing fast, reliable internet access to rural America.

[Ajit Pai @AjitPai]

The @FCC’s agenda for its January meeting is out! Most prominently, we’ll vote on the biggest step the agency has yet taken to close the #digitaldivide—my plan to establish the Rural Digital Opportunity Fund. Details on this $20B plan and more here: https://t.co/KmjDq8Crc4

Support for #USMCA is widespread across the American Dairy Industry. @nmpf, @USDairyExporter & @dairydfa shared these sentiments of support in a letter to Congress: https://t.co/Y3DMErjYtK

America’s #farmers and #dairymen are proud, hard-working people. Their mantra, from day one, has been, “Trade, Not Aid.” They’d much prefer competing in thriving open markets for their products than receiving government hand-outs. https://t.co/uFrdpoDoJK

The metal tariffs placed on Canadian and Mexican products will be lifted immediately in wake of an agreement between the North American countries. We applaud the efforts of all involved in the finalization of this important agreement.
