Democrats Promoting Universal Broadband in Five Years

Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, the next Speaker of the House, states the Democrat's new agenda "guarantees every American will have affordable access to broadband within five years. Universal broadband will propel advanced Internet applications, such as distance learning, health IT, video-on-demand, and Voice over IP. Universal broadband -- whether it's delivered by Wi-Fi or WiMAX, or hard line -- will put all Americans, no matter where they live, no more than a keystroke or a mouse click away from the jobs and opportunity that broadband both creates and supports."
