Letter: Loebsack works across the aisle

Dave Loebsack has a well-earned reputation for hard work and reaching across the aisle. One example is his leadership on rural broadband.

Loebsack understands the importance of internet access to students, seniors and small business owners in rural Iowa. As a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, he drafted an exemption to FCC rules which will allow Iowa's small internet service providers to focus resources on connecting rural Iowans to the internet, while giving them the time they need to comply with new FCC rules. This will be a welcome boon for residents of care centers, high school students and homebound patients using telemedicine.

I hope when you vote, you will check Loebsack for U.S. Representative.
