from five years agoit is more important than ever that our communications infrastructure keep up with this increasing demand, and provide seamless and reliable access to latest products, services and technologies. This will be especially important for Delaware to continue growing our flourishing economy. Delaware is one of the nations leaders in business, job growth and development thanks to our states strong work ethic and great entrepreneurial spirit. To keep this spirit alive, and continue to lead the nation in business and job growth, Delaware must continue to encourage investment in new technologies through smart public policies. AT&T is proud of the work being accomplished in the First State, and we believe the best is yet to come for consumers and businesses as the evolution of communications technology continues. We are confident that forward thinking policymakers in Delaware will continue to create a regulatory environment that ensures consumers have access to todays technology, and will update laws and regulations to reflect the competitive marketplace. In a July 2013 blog post, Gov. Jack Markell said Delaware has a strong foundation to compete, lead and win on the global stage for many years to come. At AT&T, we agree, and believe that private investments in the states technology infrastructure are one way to help Delaware compete, lead and win.
