Virus Outbreak Spending Broadband

In this photo provided by Donna Hopkins, Charlie Hopkins stands near his home along the shoreline of Isle au Haut Maine, on Sept. 4, 2021. The island, which is accessible only by boat, has slow internet service in some locations, including at Hopkins’ home. Hopkins has concerns about a U.S. Treasury Department rule that narrows the eligibility for broadband infrastructure spending under the American Rescue Plan, which provides $350 billion of flexible funds to state and local governments.
