Virginia

RESTON, Va., July 10, 2017 – Virginia is making history. Today, Governor Terry McAuliffe signed a letter accepting the FirstNet and AT&T* plan to deliver a wireless broadband network to the Commonwealth’s public safety community. This will make Virginia the first state in the country to “opt-in” to FirstNet and bring advanced technologies that will help first responders save lives and protect communities.

The Board of the First Responder Network Authority (Board) convened an open public meeting of the Board and the Board Committees on June 28, 2017.
