Broadband
Closing the digital divide is a top priority for many policymakers and the private sector. However, the FCC is pursuing two major rulemakings that significantly and adversely impact the broadband marketplace and Americans’ ability to get online.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the Texas Association of Business, and the Longview Chamber of Commerce filed a lawsuit against the FCC over its “digital discrimination rule.”
Our Work
America’s digital infrastructure supports commerce, connects people, broadens access to health care and education, and enhances daily life. Upgrading and expanding the sophisticated communications framework built by America’s private sector is imperative to improving lives and advancing society. The Chamber supports strategies to bring reliable, secure, and life-changing broadband technology into communities across the country through public-private partnerships.

A lack of high-speed broadband access can put businesses and their communities at an economic disadvantage.
