“The Fiber Broadband Association is excited to congratulate Massachusetts, New Mexico, and Virginia on receiving approval for the Initial Proposal for the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment program. These three states bring the current tally to 26 out of 56 eligible entities. We would also like to congratulate the NTIA for its diligence in awarding U.S. states and territories the necessary funds to close the digital divide and truly deliver ‘Internet for All.’ This continued momentum means these states are that much closer to moving forward with their plans to deploy high-speed networks, improving the quality of life for their communities.” - Gary Bolton, President & CEO, Fiber Broadband Association

“Utah, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands are the latest states/territories to receive approval for the Initial Proposal for the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment program, bringing the tally up to 24 approvals. The Fiber Broadband Association would like to congratulate these three newly approved regions and the NTIA for its diligence in awarding U.S. states and territories the funding needed to close the digital divide and truly deliver ‘Internet for All.’ As more regions receive approvals, we are that much closer to ensuring each American has access to fiber broadband and the opportunities that are presented with a reliable connection.” – Gary Bolton, President & CEO, Fiber Broadband Association

"FBA applauds the Department of Commerce’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) on another significant step forward in connecting all Americans to fiber broadband. This morning, NTIA announced the availability of nearly $1 billion in funding to be used for digital equity programs. Equity cannot be achieved by infrastructure deployments alone; it also requires the tools and skills to make full use of the benefits of fiber connectivity. We encourage our membership and beyond to participate in this opportunity that will help close the digital divide once and for all." - Gary Bolton, President & CEO, Fiber Broadband Association
