FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr criticized Vice President Kamala Harris’s $42 billion #broadband initiative, stating it hasn’t connected any users in three years and construction isn’t expected to begin until at least 2024, potentially extending to 2026.
Carr argues that non-core objectives like climate and diversity are overshadowing the goal of connectivity.

Carr calls for refocusing efforts to prioritize quick, direct internet access for Americans.
