Streamlining Rural Broadband Act of 2025

This bill, titled the "Streamlining Rural Broadband Act of 2025," seeks to consolidate and enhance federal support for rural broadband infrastructure. Its central action is to terminate the Community Connect Grant program of the Department of Agriculture by repealing its authorizing statute, Section 604 of the Rural Electrification Act of 1936. The legislation also mandates conforming amendments to other relevant laws to eliminate references to the abolished program. Crucially, it directs that all unobligated balances from the terminated Community Connect Grant program be transferred, without further appropriation, to the Department of Agriculture's ReConnect Program . This measure aims to reallocate existing funds to another established broadband loan and grant initiative.
