Proud of our member @GetSpectrum for partnering with Hunt.Fish.Feed. and joining Gov. Abbott in recognizing the volunteers who helped rebuild the Dietert Center after the July floods. @CharterNewsroom #TexasStrong
Governor @GregAbbott_TX visited the Dietert Center to thank the Kerrville volunteers whose hard work helped rebuild it after the July 4th floods. These volunteers spirit & grit is what makes Texas strong. Texas will keep supporting our communities.

As we look to the next phase of the US spectrum pipeline, it’s key to build on what’s working. At the Americas Spectrum Management Conference, NCTA’s Mary Claire York shared how 6 GHz & CBRS technologies drive investment, connect Americans, and why smart spectrum policy matters.

A well-deserved honor for @ColeHefnerTX! We appreciate his leadership on this critical issue. TCA is proud to join our @CTF_TX partners in accelerating broadband deployment and investment across Texas. #txlege #broadbandTX
I am honored to be named Legislator of the Year by Connect the Future Texas for my work to support broadband access across our state. Reliable internet is no longer a luxury — it’s a lifeline for education, healthcare, jobs, and keeping communities connected. I’m proud to have passed SB 1646 to help stop copper theft and protect the infrastructure that delivers this critical service. Thank you to Connect the Future Texas and their coalition of supporters for this recognition and for your commitment to ensuring every Texan has access to reliable broadband. Together, we’re building a stronger, more connected Texas. #txlege

📚 As students across Texas head back to school, it's a great time to brush up on online safety! Check out these practical tips for parents and kids from the @bbb_us, including setting up tech in common spaces and keeping conversations open and honest: gilmermirror.com/2025/08/05/… #OnlineSafety #CyberSmart #txlege

Thank you, @AnaHdzTx, for highlighting this critical issue. Protecting our broadband infrastructure is vital for public safety and emergency response. Intentional fiber cuts threaten Texans when they need connectivity most. #txlege #HD143
With hurricane season upon us, intentional broadband fiber cuts are a greater threat to state and national security by cutting off access to emergency, police and government services. #txlege #HD143 1/4

Thank you @SherylCole1 for highlighting this critical issue and protections for critical communications networks. From first responders to families, we all rely on on secure broadband infrastructure. #txlege
Broadband fiber cuts recently impacted us right here in Austin. Attacks on critical communications infrastructure threaten our public safety. #txlege

We’re proud to highlight Charter Spectrum’s $100K donation to support Texas flood relief efforts. “We know well the importance of strong connections, not just through the services we provide, but with the communities we serve and in which our employees live and work.” #TexasStrong #txlege @CharterNewsroom corporate.charter.com/newsro…

Protecting Texas starts with protecting our infrastructure. Thank you to @ColeHefnerTX and @TXLege for taking action with SB 1646. Attacks on communications systems don’t just disrupt service—they put lives at risk. See something suspicious? Please report it. #publicsafety
As the sponsor of SB 1646, I passed legislation making it a felony to attack critical communications infrastructure in Texas. These criminals aren’t just damaging property — they’re endangering lives and threatening public safety. Law enforcement needs your help. If you see something suspicious, report it immediately. Let’s hold these offenders accountable and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law. Texas won’t tolerate attacks on our infrastructure. #txlege

Fittingly, these lower-cost plans have been popular with Americans, according to analysis from industry research leader MoffettNathanson. Cable's share of total mobile phone net adds was roughly 54% in the second quarter of 2024. ncta.com/whats-new/cable-mob…
