Usage notes
President Joe Biden signed it on November 15, 2021 after bipartisan passage in the Senate. The administration branded it the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), so both abbreviations appear in grant notices. It includes $42.45 billion for broadband through the BEAD program and money to replace lead service lines.
