The connection is coming. The real question is: are we ready for it?

With nearly $20 billion in broadband funding flowing to states, millions will gain access — but access alone isn’t enough.

✔️ They’re preparing for what comes after connectivity

If we want this moment to truly transform communities, we need partnerships, workforce development, and long-term investment. 👉 Read the full op-ed: https://bit.ly/4dVfrWz
