| Desc | SHLB hosted its ninth annual conference in Washington, D.C. The flagship event drew over 300 broadband champions who came to discuss the most pressing policy issues facing community anchor institution connectivity. The three-day event opened with a keynote from FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr, who presented the importance of telehealth solutions for rural communities. FCC Commissioner Geoffrey Starks delivered the second keynote of the event. His initial remarks celebrated the many ways that libraries serve their constituents. Former NTIA Head Larry Irving joined Commissioner Starks on stage, moderating a Q&A to help the SHLB community get to know the FCC's newest Commissioner. Acting Administrator of the NTIA Diane Rinaldo spoke to SHLB showgoers on day three, providing an update on NTIA's mapping pilot, the BroadbandUSA program, and the agency's ongoing efforts to make broadband ubiquitous for all Americans. | Desc |

| Desc | The SHLB Coalition continued its strong emphasis on advocacy to promote high-quality broadband for schools, libraries, health providers, and other anchor institutions. SHLB worked tirelessly in 2019 to address numerous broadband policy issues. In February, the FCC waived and proposed to eliminate the amortization requirement for special construction projects in the E-rate program. SHLB brought this issue to the Commission's attention with an ex parte filing in October 2018, which the FCC cited twice in the NPRM. Chairman Pai thanked SHLB on Twitter. In December, the FCC made the Category Two Budget Approach a permanent fixture of the E-rate program. The decision provides schools and libraries greater funding certainty and flexibility to meet their connectivity needs. The Report and Order cites SHLB's joint comments multiple times. Regarding Rural Healthcare, SHLB worked with its telehealth members and petitioned the FCC to reconsider portions of its "Promoting Telehealth in Rural America" Report and Order, adopted in August 2019. SHLB released a report called"The Economics of Keeping the "E" in EBS" in 2019. The report published findings on the economic and social effects of our proposal to award EBS licenses to educational institutions and Tribal Nations. The report compared SHLB's EBS proposal with the idea of auctioning spectrum and found that licensing EBS to schools and Tribal Nations would reduce the digital divide by 18.38 percent as well as close the homework gap by 29.6 percent. On March 7, SHLB hosted "Window of Opportunity" on Capitol Hill to show lawmakers the many ways that organizations and anchor institutions can address the digital divide by using the Educational Broadband Service. Also, SHLB increased its advocacy on the Hill. SHLB collaborated with House Commerce Committee Chairman Frank Pallone's staff to authorize funding for broadband to anchors in the LIFT America Act, and SHLB wrote a letter to the House Commerce Committee asking that they ensure the Broadband DATA Act directs the FCC to map anchor institutions. Representative Anna Eshoo introduced the SHLB letter into the record of the Committee mark-up of the bill, leading House Commerce to grant SHLB's request in the report language. SHLB also held numerous webinars throughout the year on these issues. The webinars were free and open to the public. | Desc |

| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 6 | The SHLB Coalition is first and foremost an advocacy organization. Our Mission is to advocate for open, affordable, high-quality broadband for anchor institutions and their communities. The Coalition takes a forward-looking approach that embraces new technologies and recommends policy changes that allow anchor institutions and their communities to benefit from technological, legal and policy developments. The Coalition is also a membership organization; members indicate that they support the SHLB Mission when they apply to join the Coalition. We are neither a "think tank" (devoted to a particular philosophy) nor a trade association (that focuses only on the interests of its members), although we have elements of both. SHLB's influence, and therefore benefit to our members, is generated through our action. As a diverse and growing Coalition, it is possible that policy disagreements among our members, or among members and staff, will occur. Disagreements require SHLB to balance our forward-looking mission with respect to the views of our members. SHLB cannot act only when there is unanimity amongst our members lest we become neutralized and ineffective. Nor should we advance a particular position or philosophy without considering alternative views and positions of our members, lest we risk losing or alienating members, which could have a number of negative effects on the organization. The following process is intended to ensure that SHLB continues to act proactively to the benefit of our members, anchor institutions, and communities. Policy Process: The following guidelines outline the process to be used by the SHLB Coalition for developing and reaching decisions on policy recommendations, including situations where policy disagreements arise. 1. Policy issues may be brought up for consideration by any SHLB staff member or any SHLBmember. 2. In developing policy recommendations, the SHLB Coalition Mission Statement shall be given paramount consideration. SHLB staff and members will work together to develop and review policy recommendations and evaluate whether the recommendation if adopted, would advance the SHLB Mission. 3. When a policy question is brought up, SHLB staff and members will first try to achieve consensus. This will entail a discussion on Policy Group phone calls, emails, research, edits to drafts of pleadings and discussion on bi-weekly member policy calls. It is anticipated that most policy issues will be resolved through this consensus-based process. 4. In case of disagreement that cannot be resolved through the foregoing consensus-based process, the final decision on any policy position shall be made by the Executive Director, after consultation with the SHLB Board and the appropriate Policy Group chair(s). The Executive Director shall make the final decision based on the following guidelines: a. First, does the policy recommendation advance SHLB's Mission to promote open, affordable, high-quality broadband for anchor institutions and their communities? If the proposed recommendation does not support the SHLB Mission, the recommendation shall not move forward. b.Second, if the proposed recommendation would support the SHLB Mission, does the policy recommendation have the support of a substantial portion of SHLB members, and/or would the recommendation if adopted, incur substantial opposition from SHLB members? To determine the amount of support or opposition, the Coalition does not anticipate conducting a vote of its members. Rather, the Executive Director, in his or her judgment, shall assess the level of support and/or opposition to the proposed position among the membership through informal means. 5. While the Executive Director has the discretion to make the final decision (after consultation with the Board and Policy Group Chair(s)), the Board shall have the responsibility to ensure that the Executive Director follows these guidelines as part of the Board's oversight responsibilities. |
