Posts - Bill - HR 1873 Broadband Grant Tax Treatment Act
house 03/05/2025 - 119th Congress
We are introducing a bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code to ensure that specific broadband grants are not taxed as income. This encourages more investment in broadband infrastructure by allowing organizations to use the entire grant amount for expanding internet access rather than paying taxes, ultimately helping to bridge the digital divide in our communities.

This is a step towards equitable access; let's just hope it doesn't get tangled in bureaucracy.

Another government handout disguised as a tax break—why not cut taxes across the board instead?
