SAVE AMERICA’S
BROADBAND FUTURE.
The pandemic has shown us how important internet access is in our daily lives. Every American should be able to get connected, regardless of where they live, their household income, their level of digital literacy, or their life experiences.
Congress has a historic opportunity to bridge the digital divide by expanding broadband access in rural America with proven technologies from America’s trusted and reliable wired and wireless providers. Our lawmakers must also ensure broadband is affordable for low-income populations and increase digital literacy skills people need to unleash the power of the Internet to improve their lives.
Unfortunately, some of the broadband policy plans being discussed in Washington, D.C. fall short. They fail to provide the resources necessary to empower and enable vulnerable communities to get connected quickly. And they fail to prioritize those unserved areas of the country that are most in need of major broadband investment.
Our lawmakers should invest in a long-term solution that builds on what is working, identifies and fills remaining geographic gaps, provides meaningful assistance to connect low-income households, and is fair to and inclusive of all Americans. It’s time to finally finish the job of closing the digital divide.
Please join us to call on Congress to get America’s broadband future right!
