Across the United States, organizations based in or working with people of color, poor communities, rural communities, immigrant communities, and other marginalized groups are raising their voices for rules that will defend an open Internet that is fast, affordable, and fair.

Here in New Mexico, the Media Literacy Project is working with organizations across our state to ensure that the voices of New Mexicans are represented in this national conversation. As you may know, our state is the fifth largest geographic state in the union, with a population of two million people. In addition 30 of our 33 counties are medically underserved. The large distances between towns and cities require our communities to rely on the Internet as a way to stay connected to families, access healthcare information and services, pursue higher education degrees, and have increased economic and employment opportunities.

If you represent an organization that cares about communities having increased economic opportunities, access to educational degrees, and access to healthcare information and services, please sign the pledge to become a Digital Inclusion Champion.
