July 26, 2024 – Virginia and New Mexico received approval from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration for their Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment Initial Proposals Friday.

The NTIA allocated over $1.4 billion to Virginia and $675 million to New Mexico to bring high-speed internet connectivity to every address in their jurisdictions. States gain access to these funds only after Initial Proposals are approved, which outline the state’s broadband coverage map challenge process and the subgrantee selection process.
