NATE Statement on Proposed Federal Infrastructure Package
(Washington, D.C.) – The NATE: The Communications Infrastructure Contractors Association issued the following statement related to a proposed federal infrastructure package:
“As a trade organization representing over 880 member companies who build, deploy and maintain the wireless networks and broadband infrastructure of this nation, NATE was heartened by today’s developments that a bipartisan infrastructure package could be unveiled during the 116th Congress. NATE was also pleased that broadband funding would reportedly be included in the package as the Association has long advocated in our meetings on Capitol Hill and with Administration officials that communications infrastructure must be included in any national infrastructure initiative. While much work needs to be done in order to move this initiative forward, including identifying appropriate funding mechanisms, NATE is committed to communicating the importance of passing a national infrastructure package to lawmakers on both sides of the aisle.”
