As we all know, internet access isn’t a luxury but a necessity to participate in our modern world. The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) helped over 23 million households get online by providing a $30 discount on internet service. Unfortunately, the program ran out of funding in May, forcing millions of already financially disadvantaged households to pay more for their internet service or risk losing it altogether.

The ACP was crucial for connecting rural, suburban, and urban households to telehealth, work, educational resources, and more.

What’s at risk?

Unless Congress acts AS SOON AS POSSIBLE to fund the ACP, more than 23 million households are at risk of losing their access to the internet – or have already had to cut service due to costs.
