Great conversation and meeting with Commissioner Trusty!
At the Kentucky Rural Broadband Association @KYRBAorg Annual Meeting, I had a great discussion with Karen Jackson-Furman @wkttelcom about the opportunities and challenges for rural providers in Kentucky and beyond.  From physical and digital network security to ensuring rural communities are fully equipped for the AI future, there are many areas for the @FCC and rural providers to continue working together.

The I-65 congestion from Nashville to Mobile has always been insane but it is one of my favorite drives. Thanks to Sen. Britt for highlighting this issue!
Whether it’s completing the Birmingham Northern Beltline or widening I-65 to reduce traffic, I’m committed to continuing to work with @SecDuffy on critical infrastructure projects.
