Hillary Clinton reveals her technology agenda

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton unveiled her technology and innovation agenda, and it is extensive. Most importantly, the presumptive Democratic nominee for president promises to close the digital divide by investing in digital infrastructure. The agenda reads:

"For years, Hillary has fought to deliver connectivity to all Americans. As President, she will finish the job of connecting every household in America to high-speed broadband, increase internet adoption, and help hook up anchor institutions so they can offer free WiFi to the public. Hillary will also take action to help America widely deploy 5G technology—the next generation wireless service that will not only bring faster internet connections to underserved areas, but will enable the Internet of Things and a host of transformative technologies."

Speed Matters supports policy that encourages investment in vital telecommunications infrastructure and fosters digital equality.
