Nex-Tech endorses lowering broadband costs for consumers

Nex-Tech, a leading provider of broadband services in rural Kansas, announces its support for the reintroduction of the Lower Broadband Costs for Consumers Act of 2025. This legislation, sponsored by Senators Mullin, Kelly and Crapo, provides common-sense reform of the Universal Service Fund which allows regulated service providers in high-cost rural areas to build, enhance and maintain broadband infrastructure and accessibility in rural areas, ensuring that communities across the nation have access to reliable and high-speed internet, similarly supporting Lifeline for low income families, E-Rate for schools and libraries, and a rural telehealth program.
