Provide federal funding to expand high speed internet access in rural and underserved communities.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with Community Connect Grant Program Act of 2025?
The effort to expand rural internet access is stalled in the House Agriculture and Energy and Commerce committees as of June 2026. Members of these committees must act to hold a vote for the bill to move forward, but most bills fail because they never receive a committee vote. H.R. 6070 has seen no action since November 16, 2025, which follows the common pattern of legislative inaction.
