  "textContent": "WASHINGTON, Jan 23, 2026 – Sen. **Raphael Warnock** , D-Ga. and four Georgia House Democrats on Wednesday called for the release of almost $1 billion in funds appropriated to Georgia under the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment program.\n\nAccording to a letter to the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, funds were withheld due to a BEAD restructuring notice requiring Georgia to remove a preference for fiber and return its initial grant round in June of last year.\n\nGeorgia’s revised BEAD proposal was approved in November.\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
