NTIA Awards More Than $25.7M in Tribal Broadband Grants

NTIA awarded more than $25.7 million in additional tribal broadband connectivity program support to two tribal nations Thursday. The Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe in Minnesota received more than $11.4 million and the Pueblo of Acoma in New Mexico received more than $14.3 million, said a news release. The new funding will support "more than 1,500 tribal households, connecting them to economic and educational opportunities that many of us take for granted," said Administrator Alan Davidson.
