FCC Mail Room 
I write today to offer my unequivocal support of the application submitted by Betsy E. Huber, President of 
the National Grange, to serve as a member of the Commission's newly-created Broadband Deployment 
Advisory Committee. Betsy is a resident of Chester County, Pennsylvania where I worked with her on an 
array of issues related to agriculture and rural communities during my tenure as both a supervisor in East 
Vincent Township and a Chester County commissioner. 
As a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, I am extremely interested in working with 
all stakeholders in expanding access to high-speed Internet service to all communities to provide farmers, 
small business owners and others a critical tool for competing in the global marketplace. Given her 
several decades of experience in local government and her outstanding leadership with a variety of 
agriculture-related organizations, including her current post as President of the National Grange, Betsy 
would seem to be uniquely qualified to understand how to effectively and efficiently increase broadband 
accessibility and affordability in rural communities. She has demonstrated a exemplary leadership and a 
tremendous ability to collaborate with diverse constituencies at the local, state and national levels. 
Because of Betsy's tireless work ethic and wealth of problem-solving experience related to issues 
affecting rural communities, I wholeheartedly support her application to serve on the Broadband 
Deployment Advisory Committee. Please feel free to have anyone involved in the committee selection 
process contact me or my District Director Kori Walter at (61 0)696-2982 if I can provide additional 
information or assistance.
