Senate report flags $200 million consultant spending in internet subsidy program
Original: internet
A US Senate report says annual spending on consultants for the federal internet subsidy program exceeds $200 million. The finding is drawing criticism from lawmakers and watchdogs who question whether the funds are reaching households intended to benefit from subsidised internet access, and are calling for greater oversight of how program money is spent.
Why now: Newly released Senate findings about high consultant costs in a public internet subsidy program are prompting debate over government spending oversight.
