• CWAers Win Labor Protections in Historic Broadband Infrastructure Agree

    From Bill Horne@21:1/5 to All on Thu Aug 12 22:40:36 2021
    In a first for federal broadband investment, the bipartisan
    Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which passed the Senate this
    week, includes protections for workers in the telecommunications
    industry. This historic legislation includes $65 billion in funding to
    support the expansion and affordability of broadband deployment and
    prioritizes funding for responsible employers with high labor standards.
