Between the American Rescue Plan funds and other available federal dollars, Nevada is investing over $500 million for high-speed internet initiatives.

Last month, the Interim Finance Committee approved more than $200 million for the Office of Science, Innovation and Technology (OSIT) to pursue universal access to high-speed internet for all Nevadans. Those Funds will help build fiber into nearly every community throughout the state, including tribal communities.

OSIT calculated there are over 450,000 households in Nevada that are either unserved or underserved, meaning they lack a future-proof broadband connection that will scale to speeds that will meet the needs of Nevadans now and in the future.
