Virginia Takes a Step Closer to Universal Internet Access

Breaking Down the Barriers: Virginia’s Plan to Bring Fast Internet to All

According to the Washington Examiner, Virginia has made progress in bringing fast internet to all parts of the state. The federal government has approved Virginia’s plan to make sure everyone has access to the internet by 2024. This is an important part of a program that wants to give people in rural areas and other places without good internet access a way to get online.

The plan says Virginia wants to ensure everyone has good internet by 2024. Right now, many places in Virginia don’t have good internet. Over 134,000 homes and businesses don’t have internet, and another 28,000 places have slow internet speeds. The plan also follows new rules from the government about what makes good internet speed.

The Virginia department in charge of this project is happy about the approval but said it’s not the final step. They will work with another government agency to make sure everything is correct and then let people know when they can apply for the program. Governor Glenn Youngkin thinks this is an important step towards giving everyone in Virginia fast internet, which will help them succeed and have more opportunities.
