National Broadband?
F2C speakers Sharon Gillett and Joanne Hovis are guests on “The Communicators,” a C-Span program. From this program’s description:
Sharon Gillet, Commissioner of the Massachusetts Dept. of Telecommunications & Cable, and Joanne Hovis, Nat’l Assn. Of Telecommunications Officers & Advisors, Board Member give their perspectives on the current provisions for broadband included in the House and Senate stimulus bills. Commissioner Gillett discusses how states hope to use the grants for broadband deployment. Ms. Hovis focuss on how cities and localities wish to use the money.
The financial stimulus package is still being debated, adjusted, and combined in the legislature. Will we see a useful package of incentives, or more funding for the old ways? How will that help the nation?
Join us at F2C for a lively discussion on this and more!
