mr. doyle, you are recognized by this. >> thank you, madam chair for holding the steering and thank you to the witnesses for appearing before us today. i want to start off by saying that i share the chairman enzi and his committees goal of ensuring all americans have access to broadband and that we need to come together on a bipartisan basis to address the challenges that millions face today from a lack of broadband access, ala lack of sufficient speeds and a lack of affordable options. while it's crucial nobody gets left behind, i believe we cannot ignore the lack of competition, particularly among wireline providers and the high cost of service to result in far too many foregoing service. i'm concerned about approach were taken today. we are considering 25 bills at this hearing. i can't remember a time when this committee held a hearing on so many bills with a single panel of witnesses. we we're simply not giving these bills the time and expertise required for theer members of ts committee to
