Connecting America: FCC Releases National Broadband Plan

Today, the Federal Communications Commission sent its National Broadband Plan to Congress. The 376-page document outlines a national broadband imperative to get America connected, including goals to ensure every American has affordable access and a 90 percent adoption rate by 2020.

Over the past year, Connected Nation has offered rich data and insights in support of the FCC’s effort to develop an informed national broadband policy. Connected Nation’s comments are based on nearly 10 years of experience working with hundreds of communities in 30 states and territories to address the challenges of expanding broadband to all citizens, particularly those who are currently unconnected. These filings are accessible on
Connected Nation’s FCC filings webpage.
