FBA Official Statement Regarding Nebraska BEAD Funding Approval – 9/18/24

“The Fiber Broadband Association would like to congratulate Nebraska on receiving the approval for its Initial Proposal for the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment program. This means they can move forward in their plans to bring affordable, reliable, high-speed internet service to the homes, businesses, and farms located in the “Cornhusker State.” As of September 18, we are now at 44 out of 56 approvals, meaning that we are that much closer to bridging the digital divide. We would also like to congratulate the NTIA for its continued swiftness in approving these proposals, furthering the ‘Internet for All’ initiative.”
