Broadband Adoption and Opportunity Act This bill requires the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to establish a pilot program seeking, through public-private partnerships, to (1) refurbish internet-capable devices; and (2) establish or carry out donation, lending, or purchasing programs that increase access to such refurbished devices for individuals who do not have internet-capable devices. The NTIA must also develop recommendations for states and Native American tribes on best practices for reducing the barriers to, and increasing the adoption of, broadband internet access service.
