Benton Foundation Chairman and CEO Charles Benton sent a letter to President Bush urging the President to create a national broadband strategy. During the 2004 election, President Bush called for "universal, affordable access for broadband technology by the year 2007." As we begin 2007, we're far from reaching the President's goal.

Benton writes, “To achieve your goal, we need broadband pipes that are bigger, go faster, and extend further into every corner, community, and city in America – and we need them now.”
