Today, the FCC voted to approve a rulemaking that proposes changes to broadband "nutrition labels" which were previously mandated by the FCC under the #IIJA, requiring ISPs to display price information to help consumers make informed choices on their broadband service.

Report: EVs, walking and biking trails making life healthier for Texans Public News Service (PNS) is a member-supported news service that advocates journalism in the public interest. PNS's network of state-based news services distribute high quality public interest news…

Texas has 300K+ EVs, and federal investments are fueling cleaner air, electric buses, and bike infrastructure.

A new report highlights Happy, TX’s first EV station and paused projects that need renewed funding.

Policies May Pivot — but 47 U.S.C. § 1702 Holds Fast Why NTIA’s new “lowest-cost” rule risks funding broadband that will be obsolete before it goes live—and why only fiber, or wireless fed by fiber, meets Congress’s future-proof mandate By: David J. Mal...

"VR stutter, dropped frames in [remote] surgery, or AI model delays can have life-changing consequences. Fiber’s deterministic performance is the only practical foundation for networks tasked with delivering that level of quality." #Broadband #IIJA #Fiber

Seattle’s $300M Amtrak expansion to bring modern trains, transportation by 2027 Amtrak ridership is now well above pre-pandemic levels between Portland and British Columbia, and it’s only expected to grow as new trains debut in Seattle next year.

Exciting! TY Biden & Patty Murray for getting this funded via the #IIJA & bringing high-speed #AiroTrains to the PNW! I was also wondering why they've been loudly pile-driving in SODO for so long now 😆

I would MUCH rather have my tax $ going towards this than ICE ♥

Breaking: US DOT is Coming For America's 'DEI' Dollars, Threatening 'Sanctuary' Cities With Pulled Funds — Streetsblog USA Advocates are raising the alarm about yet another vague and disturbingly broad letter from Sean Duffy — and the fierce battle that's likely to follow it.

Illinois stands lose several billion dollars in #IIJA grants.

Moreover, Sean Duffy is a clown

Oh, did trump do that for the fastfood workers in California? #lmao
#BTW #FYI #Trump and #GOP #conservative #RepublicanParty are taking credit for The Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act #IIJA, that the republican party voted against & was signed into law by dem. POTUS Biden on November 15, 2021.

The spending graph is a stark visualization of the outcomes of policy.

A huge portion of that investment was in clean energy technology; solar, batteries, EVs. All of those products help to *lower* energy costs for Americans, and those benefits will now be less available.

@RepRickLarsen.bsky.social: "That’s the first thing I would point out ... to the administration — that taking this approach is actually going to result in infrastructure being built that is not actually safe for people to use."

The Feb. 26 hearing focused on the #IIJA and its implementation. Carroll emphasized the importance of state-city partnerships, supported predictable funding sources and program guidance, and warned that delays to funding programs will drive up costs and erode public trust.

Trump Is Freezing Money for Clean Energy. Republican States Have the Most to Lose. (Gift Article) About 80 percent of manufacturing investments spurred by a Biden-era climate law have flowed to Republican districts. Efforts to stop federal payments are already causing pain.

Red states have benefited massively from Clean Energy spending under the Biden Administration. Trump's plan to end these investments is going to hurt his supporters tremendously.

"Moody’s projected that about 80% of the new jobs generated by the #IIJA are expected to go to White workers, & 75% of the additional jobs likely will go to men"
How will the #MAGAs react when those jobs #Biden's bill gave them go away due to what #Drumpf just did?

The #NortheastCorridor is entering a new era of reinvestment that will enable faster and more reliable rail service!

"Moody’s Analytics projected that about 80% of the new jobs generated by the #IIJA are expected to go to White workers"

"Every governor in the U.S. has the opportunity to move money toward public transportation that they have already received from the bipartisan infrastructure law." #iija

The State of TN has bungled its fair share of issues—remember, not a single member of Congress here today voted for the #IIJA except me—but not expanding #Medicaid is one of the worst in recent memory.

It’s cost us $30 BILLION so far. #1 state for medical bankruptcies. @GovBillLee could change that

The Biden administration launched 66,000 infrastructure projects. Pete Buttigieg talks about what's next 'There's nothing like it in my lifetime.'

The Road to Digital Discrimination Is Paved With Good Intentions: Why Universal Service Depends Upon a Disparate Impact Standard Removing the disparate impact standard from the FCC's digital discrimination rules would only worsen the digital divide.

The passage of the #IIJA early in the COVID-19 pandemic was a historic step in the fight to close the #DigitalDivide — but efforts to limit the FCC's definition of digital discrimination could completely undermine this law. Read the latest from @publicknowledge.bsky.social intern Taylor Skorpen:

US DOT Picks Winners for $1.8B in RAISE Grants Grants are capped at $25 million, but transportation infrastructure projects aim to have significant regional or local impact.

A total of 148 projects involving highway, pedestrian-bike paths, rail and other modes of transportation were selected with at least one in every state.

Pedal coast-to-coast without using a road? New program helps connect trails across the US There’s support for a trail system that could allow for travel across America from Washington state to Washington, D.C. without using a road, but rolling out the plan has included bumps along the way.

The Biden admin just opened the Active Transportation Infrastructure Investment Grant program, which for the first time prioritizes not just building trails but connecting the existing ones. We need to fill in the gaps to take advantage of a fully developed trail network. #BikeJoy #IIJA #VisionZero

Federal policy including the #IRA and #IIJA is leading to large #EV projects and clean energy jobs. Utilities and local governments need to prepare infrastructure to maximize benefits for people and organizations in our communities. EnergySky 🔌💡
