ATA supports the continued efforts of @BrendanCarrFCC to tackle permitting delays preventing and delaying the buildout of broadband infrastructure. Unfortunately, we face this problem every day across many agencies. Thanks for prioritizing permitting reform @FCC. #Alaskabroadband

Sen. Lisa Murkowski and Federal Communications Commission member Olivia Trusty recently visited the Kenai Peninsula to learn more about how a federal broadband access program impacts one of Alaska's most diverse school districts. https://t.co/YrPkN4hoTq

Thank you for spending time in Alaska!

[Olivia Trusty @OliviaTrustyFCC]

I just completed a week-long visit to Alaska, the Last Frontier. Broadband connectivity is a game-changer in rural America, and especially in Alaska, where the rugged landscape and vast terrain make the challenge of closing the digital divide more acute.
