It's time for that to change -- and you can play a&lt;br /&gt;part. Testing your own speed will help make our new community&lt;br /&gt;research project, SpeedMatters.org, a success.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you getting your money's worth? Find out now:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.unionvoice.org/ct/Cp2tqlp16P0E/"&gt;High Speed Internet Test&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're falling behind in the global economy because we won't&lt;br /&gt;invest in the technology to bring the benefits of this&lt;br /&gt;telecommunications revolution to most of our population. We're&lt;br /&gt;the only industrialized country without a national policy to&lt;br /&gt;promote high- speed Internet access.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's why you're getting this email. Testing your connection's&lt;br /&gt;speed now will help us better understand the American average --&lt;br /&gt;and craft an effective public policy and awareness campaign.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take the speed test:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.unionvoice.org/ct/Cp2tqlp16P0E/"&gt;High Speed Internet Test&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;High speed Internet means more than smooth web videos or fast&lt;br /&gt;downloads.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Advanced high capacity communications networks can increase&lt;br /&gt;democratic and civic participation, improve the delivery of&lt;br /&gt;health care, education, job training, public safety and other&lt;br /&gt;vital services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What are we waiting for?
