FRANKFORT, Ky. June 20 – As part of his Better Kentucky Plan, Gov. Andy Beshear today announced a historic investment of over $203 million to expand reliable and affordable high-speed internet to more than 34,000 Kentucky families and businesses.
The Governor said that the state’s Better Internet program is providing more than $89.1 million in 46 grant awards to 12 internet service providers and local governments across 35 Kentucky counties. Grant recipients have pledged funds to match the state’s contributions, bringing the total investment for this round of broadband expansion awards to over $203 million.
“I am incredibly pleased to announce what I believe is the single largest provision of funding for high-speed internet in our commonwealth’s history,” Gov. Beshear said. “High-speed, reliable internet service is not just the infrastructure of the future, it is the infrastructure of the present. It is just as important right now as roads and bridges. And today is a key part of our plan to build a better Kentucky, as high-speed internet will be critical to the success of our state’s economy and to future job creation.”
The awards were made using a competitive process managed by the Finance and Administration Cabinet, which issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) in August 2021. An evaluation team comprised of state government employees spent six months evaluating and scoring the nearly 100 proposals received in response to the RFP. The 12 successful applicants, representing 46 projects, were selected based on their demonstrated ability to meet certain conditions required to receive this funding.
“These grants will lower the cost of construction so that our most rural areas will have access to this necessity of high-speed internet,” State Budget Director John Hicks said. “These funds are dedicated to unserved areas in Kentucky. We’re also setting up Kentucky’s first Office of Broadband Development to help administer and create a master plan for the commonwealth to provide universal service to every Kentuckian.”

Frankfort Plant Board Chair John Cubine, who attended today’s announcement, cited the positive impact the funds will have on residents in Franklin County.
“At the Frankfort Plant Board, we have long discussed the critical need to provide citizens in our most outlying areas the vital link to internet access that will increase the quality of life, access to educational and employment opportunities and a connection to the world,” Cubine said. “This award helps to ensure FPB can provide that access no matter where you live in Franklin County. As a long-standing service provider in this community, we recognize the value of this opportunity as it will promote economic development throughout the county. And we want to thank the Franklin County Fiscal Court for our partnership to secure this funding.”
“This is a momentous occasion for Powell County and the communities of Frames Branch, Hardwicks Creek and Furnace Road,” Fareed Saghir, general manager, Crystal Broadband Networks said. “This project covers approximately 1,000 households and is set to transform the lives of thousands of people since it opens up a world of opportunities – from telemedicine, to remote learning and being able to thrive in the ever-changing digital economy. Today’s awards are a giant leap toward bridging the digital divide between urban and rural communities.”
“The grants are going to bring fiber broadband to over 850 people. I can’t tell you what an impact that has on people’s lives. It promotes health care, learning and just a better quality of life,” DUO Broadband CEO and Cumberland Cellular, LLC president Tom Preston said. “On behalf of our employees, our board of directors and everybody involved, we just want to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”
The president and CEO of Pennyrile Electric Cooperative said the co-op is honored to be selected as a recipient of broadband funding.
“We are grateful for the opportunity to partner with the state and build a fiber-to-the-home network for the communities we serve,” Pennyrile Electric Cooperative President and CEO Alan Gates said. “This funding from the Kentucky Infrastructure Authority will alleviate some of the significant financial burden associated with building a rural fiber-optic broadband network. The return on Kentucky’s investment will manifest through state residents receiving reliable, affordable and sustainable high-speed internet. Pennyrile’s served communities will be connected to vital services that include remote access to education and health care. Further, our members will be able to fully participate in the digital economy, helping these areas grow and thrive economically. We are grateful to the State of Kentucky for their support of the members in the Pennyrile Electric service territory.”
Charter Communications executives also expressed appreciation for the grant.
“We applaud this bold, bipartisan broadband expansion effort and look forward to the opportunity to extend our ongoing partnership with Kentucky leaders – including the Beshear administration, Kentucky Infrastructure Authority and state and local leaders – who recognize the importance of rural connectivity to Kentucky’s future,” Area Vice President of Charter Communications Jerry Avery said. “From investing to deploy internet access to reach unserved Kentuckians, to continually upgrading our network to provide fast and reliable broadband products at great value, to addressing affordability and adoption barriers, Charter has long been committed to increasing connectivity across the Commonwealth. We look forward to this opportunity to extend our network to reach an additional nearly 20,000 unserved families and small businesses across 13 counties, in seven of which broadband availability will be further expanded through Charter’s ongoing rural deployment initiative.”
Bardstown Mayor J. Richard Heaton said the funds will greatly benefit citizens in the Bardstown area.
“The City of Bardstown greatly appreciates the award for Kentucky Broadband Deployment funds,” Mayor Heaton said. “These funds and our matching funds will enhance some of our planned buildouts in areas of our county and market that are unserved or significantly underserved. This would not be possible without the help of the Kentucky Infrastructure Authority and Gov. Beshear’s administration.”
The President of the Gibson Electric said they are thrilled to receive Kentucky Broadband Deployment Program grant funds for their project.
“Our member-owners desperately need high-speed, fiber-based internet service and it will vastly improve the quality of life in our communities by providing opportunities for education, health care, jobs, entertainment and more,” President and CEO of Gibson Electric Membership Corporation and Gibson Connect Dan Rodamaker said. “We sincerely thank all those who have made the grant possible and particularly Gov. Beshear, our legislators and members of the Kentucky Infrastructure Authority. We also are grateful to our local leadership for their support of this important project and to our members for their patience as we have worked to provide internet service as economically as possible. We plan to begin work immediately and will soon communicate details of our buildout plan.”
Judge/Executive Gary Moore of Boone County said financial support for this project will be transformational for his constituents.
“Boone County is extremely pleased and grateful to KIA in receiving a notice of preliminary award for the county’s highspeed internet project in the amount of $808,832,” Judge Moore said. “These funds will be applied to continuing the buildout of fiber to every household in the county, resulting in universal access to a system capable of delivering 1.0 gigabyte of service. This transformative project continues to move forward and is on schedule for completion during the first half of 2023.”
CEO of West Kentucky & Tennessee Telecommunications Trevor Bonnstetter said, “WK&T has served parts of rural Calloway and Marshall counties since our founding members saw a need in rural areas that weren’t being met by the large telecom providers. This grant award means that more residents of Calloway and Marshall counties outside the current WK&T footprint are one step closer to having access to the fastest, most reliable internet technology available. This technology improves the daily lives of our members by opening up a whole new world of opportunities in entertainment, health care, education and so much more.”
“We are absolutely thrilled with the announcement regarding the approval of Tri-County Electric’s broadband grant application,” Tri-County Electric CEO Paul Thompson said. “I believe that having our application approved, in the amount of $900,000, is evidence that the state knows we are ready to provide fiber internet to Cumberland County. I, along with our District B (Burkesville) Director, Bret Carver, am very excited for these families.”
The awards announced today are the result of a bipartisan agreement signed into law by Gov. Beshear in April 2021 that allocated $300 million in federal American Rescue Plan dollars to bring internet access to unserved and underserved communities across the commonwealth.
House Bill 320 and House Bill 382, enacted by the 2021 General Assembly and signed into law by Gov. Beshear, established Kentucky’s Broadband Deployment Fund to assist private sector entities and governmental agencies in the cost of constructing the “last mile” of high-speed internet access to unserved and underserved households and businesses across Kentucky.
The fund includes $300 million earmarked for the construction of high-speed internet infrastructure to connect areas currently without access.
Combined with at least 50% required matching federal investments, a minimum of $600 million will support the expansion of high-speed internet in Kentucky, creating more than 10,000 direct and indirect jobs. This historic investment, coupled with the internet speed test, access mapping and the KentuckyWired project, positions the commonwealth to move to the forefront of high-speed internet expansion nationwide.
The Governor’s Better Kentucky Plan aims to help the commonwealth lead in the post-COVID economy by applying federal dollars to build new schools, deliver clean drinking water, expand access to broadband, build stronger communities, improve roads and bridges and expand electric vehicle infrastructure.
The Governor also reminded Kentuckians that in December 2021, the FCC launched the Affordable Connectivity Program. This is a long-term, $14 billion program to ensure our people can afford the internet needed for work, school, health care and more. Qualifying households can receive a monthly benefit up to $30 per household.
3月15日华盛顿报道,美国总统特朗普(Donald Trump)今天表示,其他国家应该帮助美国确保霍尔木兹海峡(Hormuz),他认为关键的运输路线对这些国家的好处要比美国大得多。 特朗普总统今天在空军一号专机上与记者交谈时说,像中国这样的国家更加依赖通过海峡的石油运输,应该有助于确保它的安全。 特朗普总统说:“我要求这些国家进入并保护自己的领土,因为这是他们的领土。这是他们从那里获得能量的地方。他们应该来,并应该帮助我们保护它。” 特朗普总统还说:“当中国和许多其他国家真正存在时,为什么要维持霍尔木兹海峡?他们为什么不这样做?” 特朗普总统认为,中国约90%的原油进口通过海峡,而美国仅依靠其石油“ 1%,2%”。 然而,有分析人士称,北京在过去的20年中一直在多样化能源供应并建立战略储备以减轻潜在的破坏。 美国外交关系委员会(CFR)主任菲什曼(Edward Fishman)表示,特朗普政府在对伊朗采取军事行动前,并未与欧洲或亚洲的盟友进行磋商。 菲什曼在接受消费者新闻与商业频道 (CNBC)“亚洲财经论坛”(Squawk Box Asia)节目采访时表示,这些盟友对海湾石油进口的依赖程度远高于美国,这引发了人们的疑问:他们是否会期望华盛顿做出让步以换取援助? 菲什曼说:“别忘了,这些国家虽然是美国的盟友,但在过去一年里,它们都受到了特朗普政府的严厉关税打击。”…
3月15日华盛顿报道,美国中央司令部今天表示,伊朗关于美国正利用自杀式攻击无人机袭击海湾国家的指控纯属“谎言”。 美国中央司令部今天上午在社交平台X上发布的一条帖文中写道:“伊朗政权的外交部长声称,美国正利用单向攻击无人机袭击海湾国家,并将责任嫁祸给伊朗。这是个谎言。” 美国中央司令部写道:“伊朗军队已向其邻国发射了数千架无人机及导弹,不加区分地针对平民酒店、商业机场、居民社区及经济基础设施进行打击。而美军的攻击无人机仅针对伊朗的军事能力进行打击,旨在消除对该地区构成的威胁。” 在此之前,伊朗外交部长阿拉格奇(Abbas Araghchi)今天在接受媒体《新阿拉伯》(Al-Araby Al-Jadeed)采访时声称,“美国人研发了一种类似于伊朗‘见证者’(Shahed)无人机的无人机,名为‘LUCAS’,专门用于针对阿拉伯国家境内的目标进行打击。”阿拉格奇表示,目前正在对这一信息进行核实。 据报道,美军在针对伊朗的袭击行动中,部署了其自有的“低成本无人战斗攻击系统”(LUCAS)单相攻击无人机。这种由美国国防承包商SpektreWorks开发的自杀式无人机,具有造价低廉、容易大规模生产、适应现代战争进行大规模部署的特性。其基本设计来自伊朗的见证者无人机,但导入美国先进的航电技术。每架卢卡斯自杀式无人机在2025年的价格只需3500美元。 此外,美国能源部长赖特(Chris Wright)今天表示,与伊朗的战争将在未来几周内结束,甚至可能更早。 赖特在接受美国广播公司(ABC)新闻节目《本周》(This Week)的联合主播拉达茨(Martha Raddatz)采访时说:“我认为这场冲突肯定会在未来几周内结束,结束的时间可能会比这更早,但无论如何,这场冲突将在未来几周内画上句号。” 两周之前,特朗普总统于2月28日宣布对伊朗展开“史诗狂怒行动”,美以联军随即先发制人地对伊朗进行大规模军事打击,目标包括伊朗的军事设施及政府机构。 伊朗国家电视台证实,在美国和以色列空袭伊朗首都德黑兰的首日遇难人员中,包括伊朗最高领袖哈梅内伊,在其子穆杰塔巴随后被伊朗选定为继任者的同时,伊朗持续通过导弹和无人机、火箭弹袭击以色列和以及多个驻扎有美国军事基地的海湾国家。 与此同时,以色列除了继续袭击伊朗之外,也对黎巴嫩境内受伊朗支持的真主党民兵组织展开了大规模的空袭打击。
3月15日华盛顿报道,美国总统特朗普在今天接受《金融时报》(Financial Times)采访时表示,他原定于本月晚些时候对中国的访问可能会推迟,因为美国正试图向中国施压,期望其协助重新开通霍尔木兹海峡。 特朗普总统今天表示,他期望中国能在其访华与中国领导人习近平举行峰会之前,协助解除伊朗对霍尔木兹海峡的封锁状态;此次美中领导人峰会原定于3月31日至4月2日在北京举行。 特朗普总统补充道,距离会晤还有两周时间,这是一段“很长的时间”,美国希望在此之前获得明确的答复。“我们可能会推迟行程,”特朗普总统对《金融时报》表示,但他未就具体推迟的时间表做进一步说明。 就在特朗普总统发表上述言论之际,美国财政部长贝森特(Scott Bessent)正在法国首都巴黎与中方高级官员何立峰举行会晤,美中双方官员正共同商讨拟议的特朗普总统访华,以及与习近平主席峰会的安排。中国方面尚未确认具体的访问日期;按照惯例,中方通常会在临近预定开始日期时才会正式公布此类计划。 美中双方原计划中的特朗普总统此次访华,将是2017年以来美国总统的首次对中国进行访问。 此外,特朗普总统原计划的此次访华距去年10月30日韩国釜山亚太经合组织领导人非正式会议期间,美中两国领导人在韩国釜山金海国际机场蓝屋贵宾室举行的会晤仅过去5个月。在韩国釜山的会晤中,美中双方同意在贸易战中达成一年的“休战”协议。这场贸易战曾导致双方互征的关税在去年一度飙升至3位数的水平。 中国最高外交官王毅本月早些时候曾表示,此次高层交流的议程已“摆在桌面上”。 此外,特朗普总统今天在空军一号总统专机上还表示,中国约90%的石油供应都要途经霍尔木兹海峡;他将中国在霍尔木兹海峡问题上的配合,定性为一种符合其自身利益的举措。特朗普总统已呼吁包括中国在内的多个欧洲和亚洲国家伸出援手,协助打通该条全球每日约五分之一的石油供应经由此处输送的战略咽喉要道。 相关数据表明,中国受此次伊朗封锁霍尔木兹海峡的影响,可能远没有特朗普总统言论所暗示的那般严重。在过去二十年里,中国致力于实现能源来源多元化,并建立了战略储备,以此缓冲任何长期供应中断可能带来的冲击。 据美国对外关系委员会(CFR)“中国战略倡议”项目主任多希(Rush Doshi)介绍,目前经由霍尔木兹海峡的海运石油进口量,已不足中国石油运输总量的半数。日本金融服务机构野村证券(Nomura)也估算称,经霍尔木兹海峡输送的石油,仅占中国能源消费总量的6.6%。 据海事研究机构追踪的卫星图像显示,自2月28日美国与伊朗的大规模战争爆发以来,伊朗仍在持续向中国输送大量原油。 在美中双方即将举行的该场至关重要的峰会之际,双方似乎都在加大施压力度。美国上周针对包括中国在内的一系列国家启动了贸易调查,指控这些国家存在产能过剩问题,且未能有效解决强迫劳动问题。…
3月15日纽约报道,伊朗外交部长阿拉格奇(Abbas Araghchi)今天在美国哥伦比亚广播公司(CBS)的《面向全国》(Face the Nation)节目采访中表示,“我们看不出有任何理由需要与美国人进行对话”。 此前,美国总统特朗普曾表示伊朗正寻求达成一项协议,以结束美国与伊朗之间的战争。 阿拉格奇在接受布伦南(Margaret Brennan)主持的《面向全国》节目采访时说道:“我们从未要求停火,甚至从未要求进行谈判。” 特朗普总统于2月28日对伊朗发起的先发制人的“史诗狂怒行动”战争进入了第三周,美国和伊朗都没有任何停战迹象。虽然特朗普总统近几日来一直表示,伊朗希望达成一项协议。 特朗普总统3月3日晚曾在社交平台“真实社交”上发帖表示,伊朗“已彻底战败,并希望达成协议——但这绝非我会接受的那种协议!” 3月14日,特朗普总统在接受美国全国广播公司(NBC)新闻采访时表示:“伊朗想要达成协议,但我不想达成,因为目前的条件尚不尽如人意。” 然而,伊朗副外长阿拉格奇回应道:“无论需要多久,我们都已做好自卫的准备。这正是我们迄今为止所做的,我们也将继续这样做,直到特朗普总统最终意识到:这是一场非法的战争,且注定无法取胜。” 阿拉格奇说:“你知道,有人正因此丧生,仅仅是因为特朗普总统想要寻开心,这是特朗普总统和美国所发动的一场‘选择性战争’,而我们将继续行使自卫权。” 阿拉格奇在驳斥关于美国和伊朗之战对伊朗政府而言是一场“生存之战”的说法时表示:“你知道,我们足够稳固,也足够强大。” 阿拉格奇表示,伊朗政府看不出有“任何理由”需要与美国进行谈判;他还以此为例,提到了上个月底美国和以色列对伊朗发动首轮大规模军事打击之前,美国和伊朗原本正在进行的谈判。 阿拉格奇说:“就在他们决定袭击我们的时候,我们正与他们进行对话,这已经是第二次发生这种事了,与美国人打交道,我们没有任何愉快的经历可言。当时我们明明正在对话,他们为何还要决定袭击我们?既然如此,如果我们现在回去再次谈判,又能有什么好结果呢?”…
3月14日华盛顿报道,美国联邦通信委员会(FCC)主席卡尔(Brendan Carr)今天威胁要吊销一些新闻媒体公司的执照,以呼应特朗普总统此前对这些媒体对美国和伊朗战争的报道及批评。 卡尔在社交媒体上发文称:“那些传播骗局和歪曲新闻——也就是所谓的‘假新闻’——的广播机构,现在有机会在执照续期审查到来之前纠正其做法。法律规定得很明确:广播机构必须以公共利益为导向进行运营;若做不到这一点,它们将失去执照。” 虽然卡尔并未点名具体的媒体公司,也没有列举任何他认为报道失实的具体新闻事件。不过,卡尔的这篇帖子引用了特朗普总统今天上午在社交平台“真实社交”发帖谈及,美军停在沙特的5架空中加油机。 特朗普总统写道:“这5架飞机中,有4架几乎毫发无损,且已恢复执勤。正如‘假新闻’在头条报道中所宣称的那样,这些飞机无一被摧毁,甚至连接近被毁的程度都远未达到。” 联邦通信委员会作为一家独立的联邦政府机构,负责向各新闻广播电台或电视台颁发为期8年的运营执照;这些电台大多归属于各大电视网络旗下,并由其负责运营管理。值得注意的是,该委员会并不直接向哥伦比亚广播公司(CBS),全国广播公司(NBC)、美国广播公司(ABC)或福克斯(Fox)等大型新闻电视网络机构本身颁发执照。 特朗普总统曾多次指责一些媒体在报道美国与伊朗的冲突时发布虚假信息。2025年9月,特朗普总统就曾表示,那些对他进行负面报道的电视网络,“或许”应当被吊销执照。他当时称,做出此类决定的权力将“取决于”卡尔,而卡尔正是他在当年早些时候亲自任命的。 卡尔去年在回应脱口秀主持人坎摩尔(Jimmy Kimmel)针对柯克(Charlie Kirk)遇刺案嫌疑人发表言论时指出:“目前对迪士尼公司而言是一个极其严重的问题”的数小时后,美国广播公司便于9月中旬停播了坎摩尔主持的节目。 特朗普总统对播出该节目的美国广播公司做出的这一决定表示赞赏。后来,该档名为《坎摩尔直播秀》(Jimmy Kimmel Live!)的节目在停播近一周后才恢复了播出。
3月14日巴格达报道,据2名伊拉克安全官员透露,今天凌晨,一枚导弹击中了位于伊拉克首都巴格达美国大使馆。社交媒体上广泛流传的一些视频及图片也显示,浓烟及火焰从该使馆位置升起。 自2月28日伊朗遭遇美国和以色列发动的大规模先发制人的军事袭击之后,一直对驻扎有美国军事基地的中东邻国发动持续不断的导弹和无人机袭击。 美国驻伊拉克大使馆及领事馆今天发布紧急警告,敦促所有美国公民立即撤离伊拉克,因为亲伊朗民兵组织正加大对美国目标的袭击力度。 美国大使馆在一份安全警报中指出,受伊朗支持的团体已在伊拉克全境,包括伊拉克库尔德斯坦地区对美国公民及与美国相关的设施发动了无差别袭击。 美国驻伊拉克大使馆表示:“美国公民应立即撤离伊拉克。” 该使馆告诫美国公民,切勿试图前往位于巴格达的美国大使馆或位于埃尔比勒的美国领事馆,因为伊拉克领空内持续面临导弹、无人机和火箭弹袭击的威胁。 美国使馆还重申了美国国务院针对伊拉克发布的第4级“切勿前往”旅行警告,这是最高级别的旅行警告。 该警告指出:“鉴于恐怖主义、绑架、武装冲突、内乱以及美国政府提供紧急服务的能力有限,请勿前往伊拉克。” 美国驻巴格达大使馆今天发布这一通告之前,据报道有一枚导弹于今天凌晨击中了美国驻巴格达大使馆院内的一处直升机停机坪及办公大楼。 该大使馆表示:“与伊朗结盟的恐怖主义民兵一直在煽动并针对伊拉克全境(包括伊拉克库尔德地区)的美国公民及与美国相关的目标发动无差别袭击。美国公民应立即撤离伊拉克。” 此外,美国国务院宣布,将悬赏1000万美元,以征集有关伊朗新任最高领袖穆杰塔巴(Mojtaba Khamenei),以及“伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队(IRGC)及其下属各分支机构关键领导人”的情报。 美国战争部长赫格塞斯(Pete Hegseth)昨天在五角大楼表示,美军正在“重创伊朗激进政权的军事力量”;他还声称,已故伊朗最高领袖哈梅内伊(Ali Khamenei)之子穆杰塔巴已受伤,且“很可能已毁容”。…
