Original Note:
Misleading. $43 Billion has NOT been spent; Congress appropriated that sum for Broadband Equity Access & Deployment https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/3684 https://broadbandusa.ntia.doc.gov/funding-programs/broadband-equity-access-and-deployment-bead-program Initial proposals were due by Nov 2024. All 56 were approved in Dec 2024 https://broadbandusa.ntia.gov/news/latest-news/all-funds-obligated-ntia-takes-additional-steps-accelerate-bead-construction The same bill included Digital Equity grants, already approved for several states https://www.internetforall.gov/press-releases
