Broadband continues to be a top priority for Farm Bureau members.
R.J. Karney, director of congressional relations with American Farm Bureau Federation, says broadband is a necessity for rural communities.
A
new version of a bill that is intended to improve broadband maps has passed the
House. The bill will go back to the Senate where it’s expected to pass before
going to President Trump’s desk.
“This bill will provide more granular, transparent data and will also allow end users to challenge the maps so if they can prove they don’t have access it will allow them to challenge the FCC’s maps,” he says.
