America should expand high-speed internet access to all communities

Connecting our entire nation to the internet is key to prosperity and civic engagement for all Americans. 

Our nation has made great strides in connecting citizens to the web. Less than 10% of homes have no internet service. We supported the Biden-Harris administration’s Internet for All initiative, which began to deliver on its promise to connect everyone in America to affordable, reliable high-speed internet service by 2030. By the end of the Biden administration, more than 2.4 million previously unserved homes and small businesses were newly connected to high-speed internet service. 

Unfortunately, one of the programs that helped deliver this progress, the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment Program, is under threat by the new administration. We are working to maintain the program, established under the 2021 infrastructure law program to bring the internet to every household in America.
