Fight to keep rural constituents' access to public broadcasting and work to improve and protect that infrastructure.

I would be doing a disservice to the thousands of rural constituents in my district if I did not fight to keep their access to the rest of the world and news on the air... I look forward to working with my colleagues to improve and protect this infrastructure our rural communities rely on.
