Federal Broadband Money Disbursal 'Scattershot': FSF to Thune

Free State Foundation President Randolph May criticized “the scattershot nature that defines the current multi-agency, multi-program approach to disbursing broadband subsidies” in his response Friday to a call from Senate Communications Subcommittee ranking member John Thune, R-S.D., for stakeholder input for his review of all federal broadband funding programs. Comments were due Friday. Thune launched the review in December in a bid to hold executive branch agencies accountable for their disbursal of money from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and other measures (see 2212060067).
