Digital Equity is important work and @OfficeofEdTech @usedgov @DigitalPromise are all working together to set an example of collaboration. Thank you for listening to a diverse set of leaders explaining our challenges. #ECISDLeads @EctorCountyISD @DAndreWeaver

.@EctorCountyISD, under Supt. @ScottMuri, is closing the digital divide. Speaking at @USEDGov National Digital Equity Summit, the district's CTO, @kelliew41, says the school system is partnering with the city, county, and others to expand broadband and build a stronger community.

Lots going on today to draw attention to the Affordable Connectivity Program. It's a big deal! It's the nation's largest-ever #broadband affordability effort & it has already helped 11.5 million households get online. So proud of @FCC staff for their work developing this program.

Thank you to @SHLBCoalition for sharing our blog post about how CFC members @DFennoy, @chadgestson, @scontrerasGCS, and @ScottMuri are working to permanently close the digital divide. We appreciate SHLB's partnership in expanding access to high-quality broadband.

Friday at 2:30ET I’ll be doing my first ever AMA with @broadbandmoney! In anticipation of that @BroadbandCensus just published my latest article on how #USDA is reshaping #broadband #policy! https://t.co/aK46a55mIg

Important reminder! 🙌 📷 @ThinkingHumanit

Had a great meeting with the @DallasFed during our Digital Inclusivity Workshop. Included was @kelliew41 from ECISD, @TxLnghrnJen, & other key stakeholders throughout Tx & NM. #Broadband and specifically closing the #DigitalDivide in Ector County is a priority! #LeadForward

This country needs @gigibsohn as an #FCC commissioner. Now that we are through the nonsense of the Commerce Committee, the Senate needs to confirm her without haste.

All Americans deserve reliable broadband. A historic investment from the bipartisan infrastructure law can help make that a reality. https://t.co/AK2caL30Gb #SOTU

Great speech tonight from @POTUS — especially appreciated that he invited Joshua Davis, a 7th grader and T1 diabetic from Midlothian. It’s time to cap the price of insulin at $35/month for those that need it, like Joshua.

Governor Hochul Announces New $1 Billion 'ConnectALL' Initiative to Bring Affordable Broadband to Millions of New Yorkers

I am honored to serve the people of Texas in this critical role. Access to high speed affordable broadband is essential. #Broadband @EctorCountyISD @Alliance_Texas @tasanet

As k-12 schools, colleges & universities contemplate a return to online instruction they MUST ensure every student has access to high quality, affordable #broadband. Every school should have a Broadband Plan as #connectivity is a matter of diversity, equity, and inclusion!

Local and state officials, have you registered for a Public Virtual Listening Session? @NTIAgov needs community-level insights for its broadband grant program development and implementation. #DigitalEquity #Access #Deployment #MiddleMile #StatePrograms  https://t.co/zz33uUsj8m

Just arrived in the mail! Congratulations @terrydenoyer on the publication of #BreakingtheInternet! Can’t wait to read it again (I’ve already read it twice)! For those interested in community innovation and #broadband, this is the book to read!

When COVID shut us down, there wasn’t guidance for districts & communities on #digitalequity and reliable internet connection… 💻🌎 So @EctorCountyISD & Odessa got to work and @terrydenoyer wrote a book about it! 😎 And I wrote a forward for the book! Check it out y’all! 📚
