DeWine: Senate-proposed broadband changes would be devastating

A proposal that would prevent many local governments from providing high-speed internet access would be devastating to Ohio s efforts to provide access to every Ohioan, Gov. Mike DeWine said Tuesday. We ve made it very, very clear: some of the proposed changes simply would be devastating to expand broadband in the state, DeWine said at a bill signing for unrelated legislation. The proposal, inserted in the state budget bill by Senate Republicans and passed by the Senate earlier this month, would only allow local governments to offer broadband in unserved areas. But the way that s defined would greatly restrict, if not prohibit, them from providing service.
