FCC CHAIRMAN JULIUS GENACHOWSKI STATEMENT ON
NTIA BROADBAND ADOPTION REPORT
“The digital divide is an opportunity divide -- if you can’t get online, you can’t compete in the digital 
economy. The NTIA’s new report provides an in-depth look at the persistent gaps between the digital 
haves and digital have-nots. Closing these gaps is one of the top priorities of the FCC’s National 
Broadband Plan and a key focus of the agency. Connecting America to fast, affordable Internet will create 
21st Century jobs that grow our economy and secure our global leadership.”
