We write with concern regarding the National Telecommunications and Information Administration’s recent announcement that it is delaying the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment Program. This unprecedented move by the NTIA will further delay our communities from having the connectivity they need to grow and thrive. To unlock the full strength of the U.S. economy, every community must have access to the vast opportunities enabled by broadband, and this can be achieved by your Administration following the law as outlined in the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
