The House released its version of the  Budget Bill, HB1001 this week. We are very pleased to report a $1 million increase in internet connectivity for libraries and stable funding for INSPIRE. If you have a  House Representative on the Ways and Means Committee, please consider emailing or calling with a "thank you for supporting increased funding for internet in libraries and schools."
