  • Broadband Mapping Across the Us: Local, State, and Federal Methods & Contradictions #Showmeyourmaps
    BROADBAND MAPPING ACROSS THE US: LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL METHODS & CONTRADICTIONS #SHOWMEYOURMAPS MAY 2021 AUTHORS: Francella Ochillo Ryan Johnston Corian Zacher Lukas Pietrzak ABOUT NEXT CENTURY CITIES Next Century Cities (“NCC”) is a nonprofit, non-partisan organization that advocates for fast, affordable, and reliable broadband Internet access across the U.S. We work alongside local officials in communities of all sizes and political stripes to eliminate the digital divide. Communities that have widespread broadband access and adoption are better equipped to help reduce poverty, increase educational opportunities, improve public health, support aging in place, and boost civic engagement. Ensuring that every resident has access to digital opportunities starts with being able to measure the scope of the problem, which depends on accurate broadband data. As NCC has documented in filings and publications, the Federal Communications Commission’s (“FCC” or “Commission”) maps have long told a different story of broadband access than what residents across the country actually experience. It is widely known that the FCC’s broadband availability data understates the seriousness of, and lacks granularity to adequately address, persistent gaps in connectivity. IMPROVING FEDERAL BROADBAND DATA The FCC’s data perpetually overstates broadband availability and could be improved in a variety of ways. For example, collecting information on latency and pricing, as well as adopting more nuanced methods to determine service availability and validate data submitted by providers, would improve the accuracy and efficacy of its broadband maps. Additionally, improving federal data would support state and local mapping initiatives, which largely rely on the Commission’s data as a baseline.

  • Puerto Rico Panic PUERTO RICO | Will the Can Politicians Kicked Down the Street Become a Boomerang?
    Puerto Rico panic PUERTO RICO | Will the can politicians kicked down the street become a boomerang? By MARVIN OLASKY SYMPATHY VS. PRECEDENT-SETTING IN THE CARIBBEAN The U.S. territory of Puerto Rico is $72 billion in debt, Gov. Alejandro García Padilla says he has no money to pay the interest due Jan. 1, and liberals and conservatives propose different solutions to the fiscal crisis. The eventual resolution will affect not only 3.5 million Puerto Ricans but 315 million other Americans. Liberals are trumpeting a looming “humanitarian crisis” that demands a federal bailout: Otherwise, Puerto Rico will have to cut spending on schools and hospitals. Conservatives are emphasizing a governance crisis: Many Puerto Rican politicians have won votes by overspending; and if they get away with it, their counterparts in California, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, and other states will keep running toward the cliff. One piece of political evidence: New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio flew to Puerto Rico last month and marched with thousands who demanded that Washington send more money to San Juan. Yes, the governor and the mayor have native Puerto Ricans among their constituents, but they were also looking ahead to a time when they or their successors will demand bailouts of their own. As is typical in such protests, politicians said they had to speak up for the sake of the children. Some Puerto Ricans would like to have the island declare bankruptcy, but U.S. states and territories, unlike cities, cannot legally do that.

  • Address by NASA Administrator Sean O'keefe
    Remarks by the Honorable Sean O’Keefe NASA Administrator Apollo 11 Anniversary Event Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum July 20, 2004 Good evening ladies and gentlemen. It is a great privilege to be in this shrine to aviation and spaceflight achievement in the presence of America's first great generation of space explorers, those who made their epic voyages possible, and of our current astronauts and the NASA team members who will enable humanity's next momentous steps in space as Dr. Marburger (Presidential Science Advisory Dr. Jack Marburger) just so eloquently discussed. There are so many great friends here from Congress who been very, very important in our quest to make this next great step feasible. Senator Bill Nelson, Congressmen Ralph Hall, Nick Lampson, Sheila Jackson Lee, Mike McIntyre, Mike Pence, Vic Snyder, Dave Weldon, Bob Aderholt, Chairman of 1 the Science Committee Sherry Boehlert, Sam Johnson, Tom Feeney, Space and Aeronautics Subcommittee Chairman Dana Rohrabacher and Juliane Sullivan who is here representing Majority Leader Tom DeLay. We are delighted for their participation, their help, their enthusiasm for I think the importance of this evening's event, as well as for our continued quest forward. I doubt there are any historical parallels to our good fortune here. Certainly, no records exist of people living in Lisbon 500 years ago attending a candlelit tribute to Amerigo Vespucci, Vasco da Gama and Ferdinand Magellan, who was about to set forth on his voyage to circle the globe. Yet here we are, in the midst of another great age of exploration, thrilled to have under one roof so many heroes who've sailed over the far horizon to the shores of space and back, including to a dusty Sea named Tranquility.

    Revised August 2020 PETE P. GALLEGO PROFILE A native of Alpine and graduate of Sul Ross State University, Pete Gallego is a trained mediator with over 25 years of public service and both legal and legislative experience. Licensed to practice law in Texas since 1986, he holds a Juris Doctor degree from The University of Texas School of Law (1985) and a Bachelor's degree from Sul Ross (1982). Gallego has tried numerous civil and criminal cases during his career as a prosecutor and insurance defense attorney. Gallego comes from a local family of high achievers. His parents were the first in their families to attend college and receive degrees. One of his sisters was the first Latin/x graduate of Alpine High School to become a licensed attorney and the other to finish medical school and become a licensed physician. In 1990, Gallego also became the first Latin/x elected to the Texas House from District 74, a district containing much of the US/Mexico border. He is also the only non-Bexar County resident elected to represent Congressional District 23 since the inclusion of Bexar County to District 23 in 1980. He remains the only rural Far West Texan ever elected to serve in the US Congress. A leader, mentor and skilled fundraiser who can implement goals and provide strategic direction, Pete Gallego is accustomed to creating consensus, building and maintaining networks, and navigating complex state/federal law and procedure. His unique background would allow Sul Ross to increase its profile, expand its reach and build its success.
