                              Technology for Ohio&#39;s Tomorrow is the Ohio-based
 project of Midwest Consumers for Choice and Competition, a non-profit organization
 of individual consumers interested in technology, broadband, and telecommunication
 issues with state projects throughout the Midwest region. Our mission is to
 advocate for public policies that inspire and encourage innovation in technology
 while informing and educating technology consumers about legislative and
 regulatory issues that impact their lives. Technology for Ohio&#39;s Tomorrow will
 strive to foster an environment that will embrace high-tech jobs, investment, and
 emerging technologies to better prepare us for Ohio&#39;s Tomorrow. For more
 information about Midwest Consumers for Choice and Competition,
