FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr says Kamala Harris has made no progress on her broadband infrastructure initiative despite having 3 years to work on it.
"In 2021, Vice President Harris agreed to lead the administration's signature $42 billion effort to extend internet service to millions of Americans.
"It's now been 1039 days since that program was enacted.
"After all of that time, not one person has been connected to the internet.
"Not one home, not one business, not even one shovel worth of dirt has been turned.
"And it gets worse.
"No infrastructure builds will even start until sometime next year at the earliest, and in many cases, not until 2026.
"This makes Vice President Harris's $42 billion initiative the slowest moving federal broadband deployment program in recent history."
