STATEMENT OF COMMISSIONER MIGNON L. CLYBURN ON ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE 
WINNERS OF THE CHAIRMAN’S AWARDS FOR ADVANCEMENT OF ACCESSIBILITY
“I wish to congratulate all of the entities that participated in the Advancement of Accessibility and Cloud 
Computing challenges. You have demonstrated an incredible commitment to public service by devoting 
your considerable intellectual talents to this worthy cause.  By developing several tools that are accessible 
and affordable, you have shown how many digital divides can be bridged when we put our minds to the 
task. I also commend Chairman Genachowski for establishing this innovation initiative which has 
provided a forum where the best and brightest can collaborate to solve what previously seemed our most 
intractable barriers to greater accessibility.”
