The Biden<\/a> administration is taking the first steps to release $45 billion to ensure that every US resident has access to high-speed internet<\/a> by roughly 2028, inviting governors and other leaders on Friday to start the application process.

Commerce Secretary
Gina Raimondo<\/a> is overseeing the distribution and said that universal access to broadband internet would be akin to the electrification of rural America during the 1930s, a recognition that the internet is a utility needed for US residents to function in today's economy.

\"There's more than 30 million Americans who don't have internet,\"
Raimondo<\/a> said.

\"And in this day and age without high-speed internet, you can't go to school, can't go to the doctor, can't do simple things. Think of how many times in a day you Google something or go online.\"

The funding is part of the $65 billion for broadband in the $1 trillion infrastructure package that President
Joe Biden<\/a> signed into law last November.

That bipartisan package is one of the policy achievements that the Democratic president is trying to sell to voters ahead of the mid-term elections, though it's unclear how much the message will resonate when much of the country is focused on high inflation, cultural differences and political identity.

Former President Donald Trump has dismissed the infrastructure spending as \"fake\" even though the broadband spending was one of his own priorities.

His Agriculture Department said in 2020 that it had invested $744 million on rural
internet connectivity<\/a>, a sum that was meaningful yet insufficient.

Raimondo is travelling to Durham, North Carolina. She'll announce that governors can send their letters of intent to receive the broadband money, which comes from three programmes totalling $45 billion.

Each state would then get $5 million to help it consult with residents and write its plan.

The Commerce Department recognises that internet needs vary by state. The money could be used to lay fibre optic cable, build out Wi-Fi hotspots or even reduce monthly charges in places where price is the main challenge.

After the administration's announcement on Monday that it would provide a $30 monthly subsidy to low-income households, Raimondo noted that states could use the additional money from these programs to make the service free to some users.

The allocations would also be influenced by the Federal Communications Commission this fall releasing new maps that detail where people lack internet service or are under-served.

Governors and other leaders would then have six months to use this data to shape their final applications. States and eligible areas are guaranteed a minimum of $100 million, though the average payment would be closer to $800 million, according to rough estimates from the Commerce Department.

The goal is to have states lay out a five-year timeline to provide full internet access, while ensuring affordable internet access and promoting competition among providers.

The federal government has not defined what qualifies as affordable, since that could be different around the country based on cost of living.

The commerce secretary said she seen the impact that universal internet availability could have on people in her travels.

She said she spoke to a widower in rural South Carolina whose late wife could only see a doctor regularly through tele-health, but they lacked a high-speed connection.

Raimondo talked to a college student in Atlanta with a full-time job who had to drive back to campus for the internet to do her homework, leaving the student so exhausted that she fell asleep at the wheel and got into two auto crashes.

\"You close the digital divide and close the opportunity divide,\" Raimondo said, \"and we actually fulfill the American promise of giving everybody a shot at a good job, an education and health care.\"<\/p><\/body>","next_sibling":[{"msid":91542210,"title":"Musk puts on hold $44-billion deal for Twitter, shares slump","entity_type":"ARTICLE","link":"\/news\/musk-puts-on-hold-44-billion-deal-for-twitter-shares-slump\/91542210","category_name":null,"category_name_seo":"telecomnews"}],"related_content":[{"msid":"91542039","title":"Joe Biden","entity_type":"IMAGES","seopath":"news\/international\/world-news\/biden-administration-to-release-45-billion-for-nationwide-internet\/joe-biden","category_name":"Biden administration to release $45 billion for nationwide internet","synopsis":"Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo is overseeing the distribution and said that universal access to broadband internet would be akin to the electrification of rural America during the 1930s","thumb":"https:\/\/etimg.etb2bimg.com\/thumb\/img-size-53976\/91542039.cms?width=150&height=112","link":"\/image\/international\/world-news\/biden-administration-to-release-45-billion-for-nationwide-internet\/joe-biden\/91542039"}],"msid":91542309,"entity_type":"ARTICLE","title":"Biden administration to release $45 billion for nationwide internet","synopsis":"The funding is part of the $65 billion for broadband in the $1 trillion infrastructure package that President Joe Biden signed into law last November.","titleseo":"telecomnews\/biden-administration-to-release-45-billion-for-nationwide-internet","status":"ACTIVE","authors":[],"analytics":{"comments":0,"views":131,"shares":0,"engagementtimems":625000},"Alttitle":{"minfo":""},"artag":"AP","artdate":"2022-05-13 16:46:06","lastupd":"2022-05-13 16:47:11","breadcrumbTags":["internet connectivity","raimondo","joe biden","gina raimondo","biden","internet","united states"],"secinfo":{"seolocation":"telecomnews\/biden-administration-to-release-45-billion-for-nationwide-internet"}}" data-authors="[" "]" data-category-name="" data-category_id="" data-date="2022-05-13" data-index="article_1">

”,在这个时代,没有高速互联网,你不能上学,不能去看医生,不能做简单的事情。想到有多少次你一天谷歌或者上网。”

的资金是650亿美元1万亿美元的宽带基础设施计划,总统乔•拜登(Joe Biden)去年11月签署成为法律。

,两党计划政策的成就之一,民主党总统正试图出售选民在中期选举之前,虽然还不清楚有多少消息会产生共鸣当大部分国家专注于高通胀,文化差异和政治身份。

前总统唐纳德·特朗普已经排除了基础设施支出是“假的”尽管宽带支出是自己的优先事项之一。

2020年农业部表示,它已在农村投资了7.44亿美元网络连接,一笔有意义的还不够。

Raimondo前往达勒姆,北卡罗莱纳。她会宣布州长可以发送他们的意向书接收宽带的钱,来自三个项目共计450亿美元。

每个国家将得到500万美元来帮助它向居民和写计划。

美国商务部承认,互联网需要各州有所不同。这笔钱可以用来铺设光缆,构建wi - fi热点,甚至减少每月的费用的地方价格是面临的主要挑战。

在奥巴马政府周一宣布,将为低收入家庭提供每月30美元补贴,Raimondo指出,国家从这些程序可以使用额外的钱让一些用户服务免费。

分配也会受到联邦通信委员会今年秋天发布新地图,细节,人们缺乏互联网服务或服务不足。

州长和其他领导人将有半年的时间使用这些数据来决定其最终的应用程序。州和合格的区域是保证至少1亿美元,尽管平均付款将接近8亿美元,根据美国商务部的粗略估计。

目标是国家制定一个五年的时间表提供完整的互联网接入,同时确保负担得起的互联网接入和促进供应商之间的竞争。

联邦政府没有定义哪些是负担得起的,因为这可能是不同的在全国各地基于生活成本。

美国商务部长说,她见过的影响普遍网络可用性可能会对人们在她的旅行。

她说她跟已故的妻子的鳏夫南卡罗来纳州在农村只能通过远程健康定期看医生,但他们缺少一个高速连接。

Raimondo跟一个大学生在亚特兰大有全职工作,他把车开回校园互联网做她的家庭作业,让学生感到精疲力竭,她,在方向盘上睡着了,进入两家汽车撞车事故。

“你缩小数字鸿沟并关闭机会分裂,“Raimondo说,“实际上,我们满足美国的承诺给每个人一个机会一个好工作,教育和卫生保健。”
