Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) and Senate Republicans on Thursday called for the Trump administration to remove "woke," climate change, and extraneous regulations that hampered the expansion of broadband internet.

Senate Republicans, led by John Thune, are urging Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to remove "woke," climate change, and extraneous regulations from the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program, arguing they hinder broadband expansion and contradict congressional intent. They cite restrictive labor requirements, preference for government-owned networks, technology prioritization, and climate-related mandates as problematic. The senators believe removing these obstacles will allow states and providers to effectively expand broadband access to unserved and underserved communities.
