2018 PA State Grange Legislative Meeting
PA Farm Show Complex- Maclay St. entrance,
2nd Floor, Monongahela Room
January 11, 2018. 9:30 - 11:30 am
Topic: Broadband Services
The PA State Grange held a program on Rural Broadband Access at the PA Farm Show on Thursday January 11, 2018 in the Monongahela Room, second floor, Farm Show Complex. Its focus was to discuss what steps can be taken to ensure that rural Pennsylvania has the same access to Internet and cell phone service as do urban and suburban citizens.
“This addresses a critical need for rural Pennsylvania”, said PA State Grange President Wayne Campbell. “Telemedicine may be a great way to reach rural areas but is almost useless if you don’t have the technology to go with it. Computers in the classroom is a great idea, but if kids have no Internet access at home, that resource is wasted. Rural commerce is stymied without access to those technology tools everyone else has. That is why Broadband Internet access is a top Grange legislative priority”
