U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo and U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock visited a local fiber optics facility to announce a job expansion to increase broadband internet access in Georgia. The Norcross-based firm OFS will add 100 jobs as part of the expansion, which was made possible by $1.3 billion in federal funding allocated to Georgia as part of the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment program within the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. https://lnkd.in/e8RqQZUV

OFS reposted this
Last week, U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo and Sen. Raphael Warnock visited OFS, along with Gateway85 CID's Carolyn Bourdeaux, to announce a job expansion aimed at improving broadband access in Georgia, particularly in rural areas. Over the next few years, OFS will hire 100 new employees to expand its Gateway85 facility. OFS CEO Holly Hulse attributes this growth to Georgia's $1.3 billion from the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) program. This supports ongoing efforts, including Governor Brian Kemp's $640 million federal COVID-19 relief allocation, to enhance rural internet connectivity. We were thrilled to host Secretary Raimondo and Sen. Warnock in our district and look forward to seeing OFS expand its impact! Read more about the OFS expansion here: https://lnkd.in/eSgxKSY3
