North Plains hosts national lawmakers for discussion on broadband access

Wyden and Bonamici both said they would take what they heard in North Plains back with them to Washington, D.C. — though they have their own hurdles to clear for lasting policy change, Bonamici added. 

“I heard a lot today that makes me motivated to continue to work with the administration, and with the senator,” Bonamici said. “If we need legislative fixes, that can be a little challenging in a divided Congress, but there are some things we can do in existing law to help.”
