Statement of National Grange President Betsy Huber on Chairman Pai’s Net Neutrality Roadmap

 

Betsy Huber, president of the National Grange, delivered remarks alongside Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai at a forum on the future of regulation hosted by FreedomWorks and the SBE Council:

“I am honored to stand alongside Chairman Pai, FreedomWorks, and the Small Business Entrepreneurship Council to talk about the importance of connectivity to our rural communities. For 150 years, the National Grange has worked to ensure that all communities are able to benefit from the latest advancements in communications technologies and gain access to them.

Today, that’s why we are committed to ensuring an open Internet to connect all entrepreneurs from the Silicon Valley to the Silicon Prairie. We look forward to working with the Chairman on his efforts to spur inclusive innovation that connects all of America’s citizens, including those in our rural and small town communities.”

Betsy Huber is the president of National Grange (@NationalGrange), an organization that strives to provide opportunities for individuals and families to develop to their highest potential to build stronger communities and states as well as a stronger nation. She is also a member of the FCC’s Broadband Deployment Advisory Committee.
