Due to Congressional inaction, The Federal Communications Commission recently announced the end of the Affordable Connectivity Program, which helped low-income Americans get online.

With the increasing reliance on digital platforms for education, work, and essential services, the gap left by the U.S. Congress failure to act is a direct blow to economic equity and democratic participation.

This abrupt end to affordable internet access disproportionately impacts low-income and underserved communities, exacerbating economic disparity, racial injustice, and the marginalization of immigrants.

We must act now to demand restoration and full funding of this vital program.

In today's world, internet access is not a luxury—it's a necessity. Without it, millions will struggle to keep up, deepening the chasms of inequality.

Accessing information, applying for jobs, and participating in civic activities hinges on having access to the internet. By cutting off this access, we are eroding the very foundations of our democracy.

The termination of this program is a stark reminder that we must continue to fight for equitable digital access. Together, we can restore affordable internet access and ensure everyone has the tools to succeed in a connected world.

Join us in telling Congressional leaders to fully fund the FCC's Affordable Connectivity Program.
