Internet for All Virtual Town Hall on November 16

-
Virtual Broadband Town Hall November 16th


As an Assemblymember and former local mayor, I have seen how broadband can transform a community through virtual connection, and the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated clearly that internet connectivity across the state is not equitable when it comes to access, cost, and speed.

I will be hosting a virtual town hall on broadband access alongside state and local leaders from across our region to discuss internet access and collective solutions. This event is an opportunity to hear about new state legislation, funding and local initiatives currently underway to narrow the digital divide, and ask any questions you may have about internet connectivity in California.

Tuesday, November 16
1 to 2 p.m.

The digital divide is a legislative priority, and as your legislative representative, I am working hard to bring awareness and resources to you. This year, I authored the “Internet for All Act of 2021,” which was enacted into law and prioritizes the deployment of broadband infrastructure in California’s most vulnerable and unserved rural and urban communities. In addition, my legislative colleagues and I, in partnership with Governor Newsom, invested a historic $7.5 billion dollars towards this effort. This is a critical step forward in our mission to construct, improve, and maintain an equitable broadband infrastructure, and I am excited to work with our local leaders who will play an instrumental role in connecting their communities.
