@TeamCMR Next time join us for a Stevens County/Spokane Tribe Broadband Action Team meeting! It would be great for @FCC commissioners to see the geographic challenge of our unserved rugged mountains…and Kettle Falls! (@AjitPai came to a meeting but via Zoom.) #RuralBroadband#GoBulldogs
How is this for a creative partnership? @SpaceX and @TribeHoh prove we can overcome the #digitaldivide. This is one example of projects we’re working on to bring high-speed internet access to everyone in #WAState. Working together we can make it happen! https://t.co/M0UgXXkDSH
It's Digital Inclusion Week! #DIW2020 Our State Broadband Office is working to bring in funds & create partnerships. High-speed internet is essential for education, #healthcare & equal access to opportunity. Take the survey. https://t.co/6DDynkTSB5 #digitalequityNOW

What a difference high-speed internet can make! Our children can participate in remote learning, residents can access #healthcare. We felt like we'd been paddling up-river with a spoon on this. @SpaceX Starlink made it happen overnight. Thanks @WAStateCommerce for introduction.
It was an honor to have FCC Commissioner Starks recognize the strong work of the people of Washington state today at the first annual FCC DOER Awards. Thank you Commissioner Starks and to all those here in Washington state for their strong work. https://t.co/qP04gEVFAN
Happy to have the support of @SpaceX’s Starlink internet as emergency responders look to help residents rebuild the town of Malden, WA that was overcome by wildfires earlier this month. #wawildfire
Proud to see the efforts of so many here in Washington state recognized by the FCC. This was a huge lift by many who are not mentioned here but deserve much of the credit, see below. Thank you all!!

#WAState#Broadband Office & @WAStatePWB launched a mapping initiative to help our state understand gaps in service. We want every community to have high-speed access by 2024! Take the 1 min speed survey to help us understand where we need to get to work. https://t.co/NvMQnsFlxV
Commerce joining w/ @WAUTC to voice our strong support for federal legislation that would award $16B nationwide to accelerate #broadband expansion across the country to #rural and unserved areas. High-speed internet is now a fundamental economic equity issue. Let's get this done.
Residents in rural areas will be able to access free broadband internet through a Washington State Department of Commerce initiative to bring more than 300 new drive-in Wi-Fi hotspots in the state. https://t.co/c3EyvM0uH6
