Next step is on the way: Broadband internet continues to grow in Minnesota

Minnesota is one step closer to being awarded federal funds for improving broadband infrastructure around the state. U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) held a short press conference, on Sept. 26, to announce that the National Telecommunications and Information Administration has approved Minnesota’s plan for broadband infrastructure deployment. In June 2023, the U.S. Commerce Department awarded $651,839,368 in federal funding to Minnesota.
