Wireless Groups Raise Concerns About Ohio Broadband Bill
National wireless groups wrote leaders of the Ohio Senate and House raising concerns about a bill limiting wireless eligibility for broadband grants (see 2306150064). “Our hardest work is yet to come as we tackle the hardest-to-reach locations that remain unserved,” said a letter to the lawmakers: “Achieving universal connectivity, now more than ever, will require an ‘all of the above’ solution that matches the right broadband technology with the project. Fortunately, there is more than one technology that can meet consumer needs and expectations for their broadband service, with fixed wireless service providing its own benefits of cost and invaluable time to delivery.” The letter was signed by the Wireless Infrastructure Association, the Competitive Carriers Association, CTIA, NATE, the Rural Wireless Association and the Wireless ISP Association.
