Technology and Infrastructure
As the world continues to evolve into a global economy and our nation’s infrastructure—especially in communities of color—continues to deteriorate, the CBC is increasing its focus on the technological and infrastructure needs within our communities.Through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, commonly referred to as the "stimulus package", the CBC created monumental infrastructure investments in communities.
Advancements in science and technology have created advanced computer programming and the process of "technology transfer"—which creates public-private partnerships among institutions of higher learning, local businesses, governments, and non-profits to generate new businesses from research and development. Technology transfer and infrastructure investments are more important now than ever, as these investments serve as a direct path to creating jobs and more sustainable communities.
The Technology and Infrastructure Development Taskforce works on issues to improve access to technology by closing the digital divide and expanding broadband access to disadvantaged communities. It also works to increase quality of and access to STEM education and ensure investment of resources in our communities. Ultimately, the work of the taskforce will shore up the pipeline of black scientists and engineers, equity in the transportation market and better participation in minority contracting within these critical fields. The taskforce is aligned with the Committees on Energy and Commerce, Science, Space and Technology, as well as Transportation and Infrastructure.
