The Recovery & Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) appropriated $7.2 billion
and directed the Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service (RUS)
and The Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications Information
Administration (NTIA) to expand broadband access to unserved and
underserved communities across the U.S., increase jobs, spur investments
in technology and infrastructure, and provide long-term economic
benefits.
