Pennsylvania House Majority Leader Kerry Benninghoff applauded the passage of legislation that will help break down the barriers to broadband deployment in underserved and unserved areas of Pennsylvania. The legislation, House Bill 2071 sponsored by Rep. Martin Causer, passed the House with a unanimous vote. Benninghoff adding, “The issue of limited broadband service is not limited to any one geographic area. It is not limited to urban or rural settings. It is a statewide problem. That statewide problem needs a statewide solution and that is what this legislation provides.”
