WASHINGTON (KTVZ) \u2014 Los senadores Ron Wyden y Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., dijeron el viernes que el condado de Jefferson recibir\u00e1 $140,000 en fondos federales de la Ley de Ayuda, Alivio y Seguridad Econ\u00f3mica por el Coronavirus (CARES)<\/em> para ayudar a impulsar el acceso y la velocidad de banda ancha en el condado.<\/p>\n

"La banda ancha mejorada para las zonas rurales de Oreg\u00f3n es tan crucial para una buena infraestructura ahora como lo fue la electrificaci\u00f3n hace d\u00e9cadas para las zonas rurales de Estados Unidos", dijo Wyden, quien tambi\u00e9n es instando a la FCC<\/a> hacer de la banda ancha rural una prioridad. \u201cEsta inversi\u00f3n federal del paquete de ayuda de COVID para construir una mejor banda ancha para el condado de Jefferson ayudar\u00e1 al centro de Oreg\u00f3n a fortalecer los v\u00ednculos de los residentes con trabajos, escuelas, telesalud y m\u00e1s.<\/p>\n

"A menudo escucho en mis ayuntamientos virtuales en los condados rurales de Oreg\u00f3n que la banda ancha rural debe ser una prioridad principal, y seguir\u00e9 luchando para apoyar conexiones de banda ancha m\u00e1s s\u00f3lidas para las comunidades de todo Oreg\u00f3n".<\/p>\n

\u201cEl acceso de banda ancha es una infraestructura esencial del siglo XXI que los habitantes de Oreg\u00f3n necesitan para trabajar, estudiar y mantenerse conectados y saludables\u201d, dijo Merkley. \u201cMe complace que esta financiaci\u00f3n se dirija al condado de Jefferson, donde nos ayudar\u00e1 a garantizar que todos los habitantes de Oreg\u00f3n tengan la base que necesitan para prosperar. Continuar\u00e9 haciendo todo lo que pueda, incluso a trav\u00e9s de mi trabajo en el Comit\u00e9 de Asignaciones del Senado, para garantizar que el acceso a la banda ancha se ampl\u00ede en todos los rincones de nuestro estado\u201d.<\/p>\n

Los recursos de la Administraci\u00f3n de Desarrollo Econ\u00f3mico (EDA, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s) federal provienen de la Ley CARES<\/em>, que Wyden y Merkley votaron para aprobar en 2020.<\/p>\n

La EDA dijo que su inversi\u00f3n respalda el desarrollo de un s\u00f3lido plan de viabilidad de banda ancha para evaluar las brechas, el inventario, los obst\u00e1culos y el potencial para aumentar la banda ancha rural en el condado de Jefferson. El proyecto ayudar\u00e1 a impulsar el acceso y la velocidad de banda ancha mediante la participaci\u00f3n de un consultor para realizar un plan y una evaluaci\u00f3n para ayudar a aumentar la innovaci\u00f3n comercial, impulsar la productividad y crear m\u00e1s empleos. <\/p>\n

Una vez implementado, el plan ayudar\u00e1 a establecer la base anal\u00edtica para el desarrollo de infraestructura cr\u00edtica de banda ancha en el \u00e1rea y ayudar\u00e1 a guiar a los l\u00edderes locales y a las partes interesadas a medida que hacen que la regi\u00f3n sea m\u00e1s resistente a futuros impactos econ\u00f3micos como la pandemia de COVID-19.<\/p>\n

\u201cEstamos agradecidos de recibir esta oportunidad de inversi\u00f3n de EDA\u201d, dijo Kelly Simmelink, presidenta de la Comisi\u00f3n del Condado de Jefferson. \u201cEstamos agradecidos por la ayuda de los senadores Wyden y Merkley para ayudar a que nuestro peque\u00f1o condado rural pueda dar el primer paso para mejorar la disponibilidad de banda ancha para todos los ciudadanos del condado de Jefferson\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cLa ciudad de Madras y el condado de Jefferson han luchado durante mucho tiempo con los servicios de banda ancha que afectan a todos los sectores de nuestra econom\u00eda\u201d, dijo Nicholas Snead, director de desarrollo comunitario de la ciudad de Madras. \u201cLa subvenci\u00f3n de la EDA permitir\u00e1 que el condado de Jefferson y la ciudad de Madras desarrollen un plan de banda ancha rentable para todo el condado de Jefferson. Esta financiaci\u00f3n ser\u00e1 transformadora y apreciamos mucho el apoyo y la asistencia de los senadores Wyden y Merkley\u201d.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
