“Our public libraries in District 2 appreciated having time to speak to the Congresswoman on issues such as broadband, workforce development, and community infrastructure,” said Michael York, NH State Librarian. “We thank her for her unwavering support of the important work of our libraries in those communities through federal initiatives such as the Library Services & Technology Act funds, the CARES and ARPA funds, and the Build America’s Libraries Act. She is always there when we need her. We hope to schedule library visits for the Congresswoman when we are all able to get together safely.”
