New Laws and Labor Reform Bills

CWA News reports The Broadband Data Improvement Act becomes law. CWA's Speed Matters Strategic Industry Fund campaign was the prime mover behind this bill becoming law. This law requires the Federal Communications Commission to conduct annual studies on broadband deployment and adds a question to the federal Census on dial up and broadband Internet use. This bill was essential to ensure that all Americans even in the most rural areas will have access to today's technologies.

Senate sponsor Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii) said "we cannot manage what we cannot measure". This bill will give us the baseline statistics we need in order to eventually achieve the successful deployment of broadband access to all Americans".

This type of innovative legislation is the first step to bringing true high speed internet to all Americans. High speed broadband is a critical element of economic development for the United States and will help fuel the nation's economic growth.
