For the Press

The FCC just voted to establish the RDOF with Conexon’s clearing round provision included, favoring electric cooperatives!

We are excited to be present for the announcement today in Washington. This means significantly more funding available for electric cooperatives to build gigabit-capable networks to serve members throughout rural America with high-speed internet.

The Commission considered a Report and Order that would adopt a two-phase reverse auction framework for the Rural Digital Opportunity Fund, committing $20.4 billion in high-cost universal service support to bring high-speed broadband service to millions of unserved Americans.
