Description
Description | West Virginia was allocated $1.2 billion in federal dollars through the Broadband Equity Access and Deployment (BEAD) program to bring affordable, fast internet to rural communities. The program aims to connect homes and businesses to high-speed internet, addressing the state's challenges with slow and unreliable internet due to topography and rural infrastructure. However, nearly three years after allocation, no home has been connected through these funds. The plan has faced delays and changes, including a reduction in the number of locations to be connected and political challenges affecting the rollout. |
