The Roanoke Times published an op-ed by Jonathan Sallet on August 26. Jon urges the federal government to support state and local governments to address their broadband challenges: "The magnitude of the challenge requires that all the players — federal, state and local — take the field. The sooner we start to build a comprehensive broadband agenda, informed by state and local leadership and innovation, the sooner we will reap the benefits that will come when every person can use a robust internet connection at home."
