@mkraju On broadband, the deal includes $40 billion in state grants for deployment, and is technology-agnostic. ISPs using the money have to build networks with minimum speeds of 100 Mbps down / 20 Mbps up. That's a bit less than the symmetrical speeds some senators have called for. — PolitiTweet.org
