Bring NO broadband bill forward until you visit our communities and learn about our inadequate broadband.

The Issue

The Kansas Senate Commerce Committee allowed the Kansas Cable Telecommunications Association (KCTA) to write and submit a draconian bill that ignored communities' constitutional home rule in order to drive away competition and eliminate communities' ability to use broadband to improve our local economies, education and healthcare delivery. 

 After hundreds of Kansans rose up, spoke out and put our foot down, the Committee on Commerce removed the bill when KCTA promised to "tweak it."
