Testimony in Support of SB1680/HB984, Relating to Technology, with PEG PROTECTION Amendments.

I am a concerned resident of Hawaii who supports broadband technologies and also supports language to protect public access and community television to be inserted into the broadband bill.

Please accept this as my testimony in support of SB1680/HB984, Relating to Technology, with amendments that consider increased funding and broadband improvements for our islands public, educational and governmental (PEG) access organizations because of their benefit to rural communities.

I hope that lawmakers will do whats right and ensure that the public has a say in public rights of way. Thoughtful broadband legislation with amendments that enhance PEG access services will support ALL of Hawaiis diverse communities.

Thank you.

    • We will not stand to allow a deliberate shutdown and control over Akaku and its ability to broadcast federally mandated freedom of the public to view and broadcast what it chooses to as a populus at all times in this land. Our Newly elected President will surely not withstand this deliberate and unconstitutional action against the American civil and moral liberties for which this country and nation was founded.

    • It is a fundmental right for all people to communicate freely and PEG Access helps empower our community to have equal access to the technology necessary for communication of ideas and information in the digital age. PEG protection and freedom of expression should be central to broadband regulation and not after thoughts.
