HR 3609 United States House · 118th Congress

Accurate Map for Broadband Investment Act of 2023

HR 3609, the *Accurate Map for Broadband Investment Act of 2023*, requires the federal government to update broadband coverage maps before finalizing funding allocations for broadband infrastructure projects. It mandates that 210 days after initial funding is awarded to a provider, the Assistant Secretary must recalculate allocations using the latest broadband data maps and adjust funding amounts accordingly. This ensures grants reflect current coverage gaps, with providers receiving formal notice of any adjusted funding before final disbursement. The bill directly affects broadband providers receiving federal funds under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, focusing on improving map accuracy to direct investments where broadband access is lacking.
