ENDORSEMENTS

“The Office of Infrastructure Policy and Development's Five-Year Action Plan for the Guam Broadband Initiative, under the Broadband, Equity, Access, and Deployment grant Program, is a vital initiative for the island's economic prosperity and future growth, as it not only addresses internet latency, affordability, and accessibility but also lays the foundation for Guam's digital transformation, ensuring our island remains competitive and resilient in the global economy.”

-Gov. Lou Leon Guerrero, Governor of Guam

“On behalf of the University of Guam, I endorse the Guam Broadband Infrastructure 5-Year Action Plan. The University of Guam is committed to working with the Guam Economic Development Authority, the Office of Infrastructure Policy and Development, and local government agencies and educational institutions to develop the workforce required to support this significant investment in Guam's broadband infrastructure.”

-Dr. Anita Borja Enriquez, President, University of Guam

"The Bureau of Women's Affairs fully supports the Guam Broadband Infrastructure Five-Year Action Plan. This plan's focus on bringing broadband connectivity to all sectors of the island - especially to the economically disadvantaged - will help to bridge a major gap through the opportunities we create for people when we provide them with connectivity. Opportunities for improved access to education, to needed resources, and to more secure ways of keeping connected to each other. This plan will literally open up a whole new world to so many of our people."

-Jayne Flores, Executive Director Bureau of Women’s Affairs

"In today's fast-changing digital world, having access to the internet and better connectivity is a game-changer. It's not just about technology; it's about helping those who are struggling the most. By making sure everyone can get online, we're supporting the fight against homelessness and poverty. This is why we're backing the BEAD Five-Year Plan - because it's a step towards giving everyone a chance to break the cycle of poverty and build a better future."
