AT&T to Accelerate Fiber Buildout by 1M Locations Annually Starting 2026, Citing "One Big Beautiful Bill Act"

AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) is one of the best US stocks to buy and hold in 2025. Recently, AT&T announced that it plans to accelerate its fiber infrastructure buildout due to policies contained within the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” which was passed by Congress on July 3, 2025, and signed into law by President Donald Trump on July 4.

Due to the tax provisions and pro-investment policies within this legislation, AT&T expects to increase its fiber investment to an additional 1 million fiber customer locations annually starting in 2026. This bill also establishes a pipeline of mid-band spectrum to meet consumer demand.

AT&T credits this legislation with paving the way for the goals laid out by FCC Chairman Brendan Carr’s “Build America Agenda,” which aims to unleash high-speed infrastructure build and restore America’s global lead in wireless technology through smart policy. AT&T plans to provide a detailed update on the expected impact of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” on its 2025 and long-term financial outlook.
