    How would the bill determine which areas qualify as 'underserved' with 'slow internet speeds,' and who verifies that eligibility?

  2. 02

    What evidence suggests that Wi-Fi boosters alone address broadband gaps, rather than requiring infrastructure upgrades in underserved communities?

  3. 03

    Why cap this tax credit through 2029, and what happens to households who need replacements or upgrades after that expiration date?
