This mapping plays a major role in decisions about the distribution of broadband infrastructure funding from the <em>Bipartisan Infrastructure Law<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDespite a clear mandate from Congress, the draft maps are deeply flawed.

Last month, Senator Rosen led a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosen.senate.gov\/es\/2022\/12\/22\/rosen-capito-lead-effort-to-push-fcc-to-fix-broadband-mapping\/\"> bipartisan letter<\/a> to the FCC Chairwoman pushing the agency to fix these inaccurate broadband maps.

Senator Rosen helped secure this funding as one of the authors of the broadband section of the <em>Bipartisan Infrastructure Law<\/em>. As part of her Innovation State Initiative, Senator Cortez Masto has worked to improve broadband access, including in Tribal communities, and strengthen Nevada\u2019s economy. Last Congress, she advocated for provisions in the bipartisan <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cortezmasto.senate.gov\/news\/press-releases\/cortez-masto-delivers-historic-investments-for-nevada-in-bipartisan-infrastructure-package\">infrastructure law<\/a> to invest in broadband.
