At the #OpenInfraSummit, Mariel Triggs, the CEO of @MuralNetwork, talked about the connectivity issues that indigenous nations face and how her organization leverages Magma for an affordable way to keep them connected. Lean about this Magma use case: ow.ly/OwNd50DcsUW

On tribal lands, only 65 percent of the population has access to broadband. Half of tribal rural households don’t even have access to a fixed wireless internet provider. @Tribal252 @muralnetwork

About 628,000 tribal households don't have #BroadbandAccess. The @FCC offers a 2.5GHz Rural Tribal Priority Window to improve access, but Tribes have faced obstacles to applying due to #COVID19. The FCC must extend this deadline --> publicknowledge.org/wp-conte… #ConnectTribes

FCC grants Navajo Nation temporary access to broadband spectrum to help during COVID-19 pandemic

Over 50 million students have been forced into remote learning programs. Newly unemployed Americans and derailed small businesses must apply for benefits and loans online. Senators, why are we still debating whether #broadband is essential infrastructure? wsj.com/articles/u-s-coronav…

Schools and libraries are adapting to this moment, and E-Rate should too. The @FCC should make temporary changes so that E-Rate funds can support the many students who are now learning at home and need hotspots to stay connected.
Millions of students are sent home due to coronavirus. We cannot forget the 12 million students who lack internet access at home. @SenatorBennet, @SenBrianSchatz and I are calling for the FCC to expand the E-Rate program to ensure these students can access the internet at home.
MuralNet retweeted
Broadband must be part of the #coronavirus response. At yesterday’s Senate appropriations hearing, I called for a connectivity stimulus to make sure all Americans who need to can work from home, access medical care, and keep their children learning. The @FCC must act now.

Very important conversation happening at #NEBSA2020 about how tribes are not being given control of all natural resources over their lands, including spectrum. – at San Diego, CA

Just amazing. Hearing directly from the Havasupai Tribal leaders on how they closed the homework gap at the bottom of the Grand Canyon through #EBS. Ongoing management of the network takes only a handful of hours per month. #NEBSA2020

A year ago I called for governments, companies & citizens to come together to protect the web as a force for good.
Today, we launch the Contract for the Web — the first global plan of action to build the #WebWeWant.
