                      SUPPORT FOR RURAL BROADBAND

  Mrs. AXNE. Madam Speaker, I was unable to vote on H.R. 3193--E-BRIDGE 
Act. Had I been able, would have voted YEA on this legislation. This is 
a strong bipartisan bill that I am proud to support, which will help 
bring needed Economic Development Administration grants to rural 
communities--helping complete that ``last mile''. As a member of the 
Rural Broadband Task Force, I am always working to see Congress pass 
legislation that will help connect more of our rural communities with 
the internet.
