The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act’s passage signals a future of investment in national assets critical to developer success.
Washington D.C., November 16th, 2021 – The Developers Alliance has released a statement concerning the passage and signing into law by President Biden of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal (H.R.3684 – Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act).
The following quote can be attributed to Sarah Richard, Policy Counsel & Head of US Policy:
“Reliable high-speed internet is critical to developers today, as well as the developer talent pipeline…Federal broadband funding allows our country to close the digital divide by ensuring affordable, reliable, high-speed internet to all Americans. Increased connectivity gives developers and aspiring developers the tools they need to build their skills and create the products and services for a 21st-century economy regardless of whether they live in rural or urban areas. We commend the administration for recognizing the important role broadband connectivity plays in allowing for developers — and America— to thrive. “
