Below: Happy New Year Everyone! Due to the weather, we will not be hosting First Friday tonight (sorry for the very short notice) - have a safe and warm weekend! Help Stop the Sale of Verizon to Frontier Rally at the State Capitol this weekend, Sunday, January 10 from 2:00 to 3:30 PM at the Culture Center. Join the Communication Workers of America and others - music, food, and inspiring speeches! Write a letter to Governor Manchin with just a few simple clicks at www.bad4wv.org. Come to the public hearing to show your opposition to the Verizon-Frontier deal. Consumers, seniors and business people are especially needed to testify that if the deal is approved, it will only deepen rural West Virginia's "digital divide" with a small carrier that is financially overextended without the resources to improve service or expand high speed broadband. The hearing will begin at 9:30 AM on Tuesday, January 12 at the Public Service Commission Building, Howard M. Cunningham Hearing Room, 201 Brooks Street, Charleston WV. The hearing will also be webcast live on the PSC site. Visit http://www.psc.state.wv.us/webcast/default.htm for more details. Citizen Advocacy Training in Huntington Citizen Advocacy Training.
