In this episode we are joined by Thomas Tyler, Deputy Director of ConnectLA. Since the establishment of Louisiana's state broadband office in 2021, the state has been striving to bridge the digital divide through initiatives like Granting Unserved Municipalities Broadband Opportunities (GUMBO) grants.
