On Monday, CWA members hosted a public town hall meeting in Casa
Grande, Ariz., with Democratic Congressman Tom O'Halleran and Under
Secretary of Agriculture for Rural Development Xochitl Torres Small to
discuss the need for expanding broadband access throughout the state,
especially to underserved communities. Fernando Roman, CWA Broadband
Brigade member and Executive Vice President of CWA Local 7026, also
participated in the forum along with other panelists.

"We are forty-five minutes or so down the road from the fifth largest
metropolitan area in the country and we have very poor broadband,"
said O'Halleran, speaking to the enthusiastic crowd. He added, "People
in rural America need to be part of the knowledge-based economy."
