At a press conference hosted by Westmoreland County officials, plans to bring internet connectivity to unserved communities were heralded by Westmoreland House members.

“In a lot of ways, digital communication is a great equalizer for those who live in rural communities and have not yet had a seat at the table on this topic,” said Rep. Eric Davanzo (R-Westmoreland), who serves on the Westmoreland County Broadband Task Force. “I am glad to see that these folks are being prioritized.”
