I was thrilled to learn of AT&T's plans for improvements in its network in the Greater Jacksonville area in 2011. This new investment builds on nearly $300 million the company has spent here the last two years. The construction is good for the local job market in the short run and the enhanced access and speeds will benefit consumers and business throughout the Third District in the long run. Broadband access is becoming increasingly tied to the success and vitality of communities across America. These new investments demonstrate that AT&T shares the confidence in the vitality of Greater Jacksonville that I have always had.
