Tribal Chief of a Nation With 68-Mile Fiber Network Named to FCC Task Force

Earlier this year, the FCC renewed and renamed its tribal government task force, established in 2011, as the Native Nations Communications Task Force. The task force advises the FCC on the impact of various proposals on Tribal self-sufficiency, economic development and access to communications facilities and services.

The rename reflected the tasks force’s influence beyond increasing deployment and adoption of broadband on Tribal lands.
