Kamala Harris Fails Americans in Broadband Expansion Efforts
Submitted by MAGA
Posted 8 hours ago
Vice President Kamala Harris is facing mounting criticism over her alleged mismanagement of the historic $42 billion Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program aimed at expanding internet access in underserved areas.
Republican senators have called out Harris for failing to deliver on her promises and for maintaining an agenda focused on climate change rather than providing essential broadband services to millions of Americans.
Senator John Thune, the ranking member of the Subcommittee on Communications, Media, and Broadband, has been vocal about the perceived ineffectiveness of the program.
Despite the significant federal investment, it has been reported that not a single person has gained internet access through this initiative since its launch in 2021.
Brendan Carr, a commissioner at the Federal Communications Commission, added weight to these concerns, pointing out that “in over 1,000 days” of the Biden-Harris administration, the rollout of the BEAD program has resulted in zero connectivity for the intended beneficiaries.
The Republicans argue that the Biden administration has taken a convoluted path by imposing stringent regulations inappropriately tied to broadband expansion.
They allege that Harris has prioritized government-owned networks over potential private investments and introduced burdensome climate mandates that have only served to stall progress.
In a time when reliable internet access is critical for education, business, and healthcare, the senators emphasize that Harris's mismanagement stands in stark contrast to her commitments to the American people.
Current efforts to wire rural America have been hindered by what they describe as unnecessary bureaucratic hurdles and politicization of essential services.
As the midterm elections approach, this unfolding disaster in broadband deployment could very well become a focal point of the Republican campaign narrative, highlighting the stark differences in governance between the two parties.
With the nation watching closely, Republican leaders are doubling down on their calls for accountability in the handling of taxpayer funds, insisting that real solutions, not political agendas, are what’s needed to keep America connected.
