Massive Funding Allocated to Improve High-Speed Internet Access Across the U.S.

New Hampshire is set to receive nearly $197 million in federal funding to improve high-speed internet access, addressing the needs of over 25,000 homes and small businesses currently without reliable connectivity. President Joe Biden aims to connect every American to high-speed internet by 2030, recognizing it as a necessity rather than a luxury. While New Hampshire ranks 21st in the country for internet access, the cost remains a challenge for some households. The broadband grant program, part of the bipartisan infrastructure law, is expected to have a significant impact on rural communities, improving access to healthcare, education, and business opportunities.
