The state has been approved to receive the funding since January 2025, but the Trump Administration\u2019s pause on this critical program is indefinitely delaying Nevada\u2019s ability to connect Nevadans to high-speed internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The letter was signed by Senators Ben Ray Luj\u00e1n (D-NM), Raphael Warnock (D-GA), Mark Warner (D-VA), Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV), Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), Gary Peters (D-MI), John Hickenlooper (D-CO), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), and Angus King (I-ME).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe write with concern regarding the National Telecommunications and Information Administration\u2019s (NTIA) recent announcement that it is delaying the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program,\u201d <strong>wrote the Senators. <\/strong>\u201cThis unprecedented move by the NTIA will further delay our communities from having the connectivity they need to grow and thrive. To unlock the full strength of the U.S. economy, every community must have access to the vast opportunities enabled by broadband, and this can be achieved by your Administration following the law as outlined in the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (P.L. 117-58).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCurrently, there are multiple states ready for broadband providers to put shovels in the ground tomorrow,\u201d <strong>they continued. <\/strong>\u201cNTIA must act swiftly to release BEAD funding to states that have already been approved and expeditiously work to approve the remaining eligible applications. Time is of the essence, and our rural and tribal communities cannot afford more delays.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The full letter can be found <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosen.senate.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Letter-to-President-on-BEAD.pdf\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Senator Rosen has been a strong advocate for expanding high-speed internet access in Nevada.
