The Buckeye Institute: Ohio Needs to Expand High-Speed Internet Service to Underserved Areas
In Policy Solutions for the Pandemic: Expanding Broadband to Underserved Areas, The Buckeye Institute calls on Ohio to offer targeted state grants to deploy high-speed broadband service to underserved areas of the state, writing, “We have recommended expanding Ohio’s telehealth services for routine medical care and bolstering education savings accounts to help families afford the unanticipated costs of distance learning online for their now ‘home schooled’ children. Both recommendations require high-speed broadband internet access.”
