Charter Communications, Inc. today announced its membership in the Joint Cyber Defense Collaborative (JCDC), a new model for public-private operational collaboration established by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).

“Charter congratulates Chairwoman Rosenworcel and the FCC’s Broadband Data Taskforce on the publication of the new broadband map, which is a significant milestone and essential to achieving 100% connectivity.”

"Charter applauds Congressman G. K. Butterfield for re-introducing the 'Expanding Opportunities for Broadband Deployment Act' again this Congress" the company said in a statement.

We have strongly supported and hope to participate in the Emergency Broadband Benefit Program and we commend the efforts of Acting Chairwoman Rosenworcel and all at the FCC who moved this important effort forward swiftly.

Charter applauds the work of Chairman Pallone and members of the House Energy and  Commerce Committee to help schools and students struggling to participate in virtual learning by advancing legislation that will increase connectivity to reliable, in-home broadband.

“The proposal put forward today recognizes the tremendous change across the video marketplace. With cable, satellite, over the-air, platforms like YouTube, streaming apps from AT&T, Netflix, Hulu, Disney, Apple and many others, consumers more than ever have choices for where, when and how they watch video.

Charter is committed to providing faster and better broadband to more Americans in urban, suburban, and rural areas, and today the FCC has taken two important steps that will help us continue to deliver on that commitment. The FCC action on section 621 will eliminate excessive and duplicative fees that divert resources away from broadband deployment and make services more expensive for consumers.

“Charter is committed to providing more Americans with faster and better broadband and has invested over $23 billion in its technology and infrastructure since 2014. The resolutions released today by the House Subcommittee on Communications and Technology rightly encourage funding be directed to unserved communities that need it the most and recognize the need for federal policies to be technology neutral.

The proposed tax reform legislation introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives would establish a corporate tax rate that enables U.S. businesses to compete in the global economy and provide broadband companies the freedom to invest further in deployment and infrastructure upgrades. Charter is particularly encouraged by the proposal to establish a ‘thin cap’ on interest deductibility for companies like ours who invest billions of dollars year after year in our broadband infrastructure and in growing our diverse and insourced workforce.
