THE PROBLEM
The State has decided to rely on a demonstrably inaccurate and discriminatory Broadband Map that threatens to squander the Governor’s once-in-a-generation $6B public infrastructure investment and perpetuate divestment in historically redlined communities.
THE SOLUTION
The State needs to:
Prioritize broadband infrastructure investments in the least-connected, lowest-income communities
Uncouple the upcoming $4B broadband infrastructure funding from the demonstrably inaccurate State Broadband Maps.
