The Commonwealth Connect Coalition believes that every Virginian deserves access to quality broadband and the opportunity to fully participate in American life. From economic development to telemedicine to education, the internet touches nearly every aspect of modern life, and every corner of Virginia needs to have access to a reliable, high speed connection. Now is the time to bridge this digital divide; failing to invest in broadband would leave hundreds of thousands of Virginians disconnected from the modern economy. Recognizing the importance of broadband access for all Virginians, the undersigned organizations wholeheartedly support meaningful funding for the Virginia Telecommunication Initiative (VATI) and the goal of universal broadband coverage across Virginia.

If you are interested in learning more about the Commonwealth Connect Coalition, please contact Chandler Vaughn.
