News Release 

*Biden-Harris Administration Partners with Local Organizations, Cooperatives and Tribes to Support High-Speed Internet Deployment in Rural Communities as Part of Investing in America Agenda*

*McALLEN, Texas, April 24, 2024* – U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Deputy Secretary Xochitl Torres Small today announced that USDA is partnering with rural cooperatives, local organizations and Tribes to support high-speed internet deployment in 11 states.

USDA is awarding $5.2 million in cooperative agreements through the Broadband Technical Assistance Program [ https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.rd.usda.gov/programs-services/telecommunications-programs/broadband-technical-assistance-program__;!!KOmxaIYkRmNA0A!TY1_-Gcph2saJlTDgjIBpY8KBtaQ7-xztCbRLC6F_3KGimxc1Mzg3XUkP9Y7zwQaLgPIfYJ46Y25G3mLYlp_rwKjg0Zl7LE3SlM1nFXuOIs7Pw$  ], which is funded through President Biden’s historic Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

This funding will extend the reach of other high-speed internet programs to meet the Administration’s goal to connect every community in America with affordable, reliable, high-speed internet. It also reflects the goals of President Biden’s "Investing in America" agenda, a key pillar of Bidenomics, to rebuild the economy from the middle out and bottom up and strengthen the nation’s infrastructure.
