NRECA Applauds Congressional Call to Expand Rural Broadband Access

America’s Electric Cooperatives today applauded the 71 members of Congress who sent a letter to President Trump calling for him to include investments to bring broadband service to rural America in his infrastructure proposal.

The letter was coordinated by the House Rural Broadband Caucus which is led by co-chairs: Reps. Kevin Cramer (R-ND), Bob Latta (R-OH) Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL), Mark Pocan (D-WI), Peter Welch (D-VT), and Rep. Dave Loebsack (D-IA).

“Without access to high-speed internet, rural communities are being left behind in the 21st century economy,” said NRECA CEO Jim Matheson. “The Rural Broadband Caucus understands this issue well, and we appreciate their leadership. Expanding broadband access in rural America should be a top economic development priority. We look forward to working with the Trump administration and Congress to address this problem.”

The National Rural Electric Cooperative Association is the national service organization that represents the nation’s more than 900 private, not-for-profit, consumer-owned electric cooperatives, which provide service to 42 million people in 47 states.
