If you are one of the many people in Clarion County frustrated by the fact you can't get high speed Internet to your home, there is a solution!


Pennsylvania Law now requires broadband providers to make high speed internet available to ALL customers within a specified service area when certain conditions are met.
Complete text of the Law - HB 30 of 2003 - is available by clicking here

Please note - this is NOT A SALES SITE!
This is a grass roots effort designed to use Pennsylvania Law to
respectfully, legitimately, and appropriately force broadband companies to provide broadband service to rural customers. .

This site is committed to meeting those certain conditions as quickly as possible. It's simple:
