Thank you very much for inviting me to be part of such an important conversation. It is truly an honor, as I believe deeply in the importance of connectivity and the role that counties and cooperatives play in that endeavor. I was asked to talk about a few things today: the importance of broadband in a time of COVID; the important role that cooperatives play in broadband deployment; and the different technologies that deliver broadband to our homes, offices, and schools. But I am also happy to answer any and all questions, so please don't be shy to ask.
