Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D) signed a high-speed internet bill Sunday allowing $10 million from federal COVID-19 relief funds to be used for telehealth grants and $5 million for broadband grants for low-income households or “critically unserved” areas with less than 10/1 Mbps. Funds in critically unserved areas are for satellite providers only, said the bill (SB-60).
