GOP Virginia lieutenant governor-elect expresses concern over rural broadband access under infrastructure law
CNN
Winsome Sears, Virginia's lieutenant governor-elect, expressed the importance of rural broadband access and her concerns over how funds allocated for broadband access in the newly signed infrastructure law would help Virginians, especially in the southwestern part of the state.
"Well, it depends on what else comes with it. ... Do we know what's really in it and do we have to pass it before we can know what's in it?," Sears told CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union" when asked if the infrastructure package is good for Virginians. "Now broadband is very important to me, because our southwestern Virginia has been suffering from not having that."
