FCC Passes Emergency Broadband Benefit

While always an important utility, the last year has demonstrated just how essential reliable broadband is for the nation. For our children this has been especially true, as consistent and reliable high-speed broadband has been the only way to assure continuity of instruction.

The FCC recently created the Emergency Broadband Benefit, which will support households struggling to pay for internet service by providing up to $50/month for broadband and up to $100 toward the purchase of a laptop, desktop, or tablet.

Further details about the program can be found at the FCC.
