The Federal Communications Commission this week opened enrollment for its Emergency Broadband Benefit program, aimed at expanding connectivity to people in need via discounted Internet services.
Those eligible for the program include people who experienced a substantial loss of income in 2020, individuals who currently receive or qualify for Lifeline benefits through federal programs such as SNAP and households with incomes at or below 135% of the federal poverty guidelines.
FCC Acting Chair Jessica Rosenworcel described the $3.2 billion initiative as the largest ever program in the U.S. to address broadband affordability. It will help families nationwide get online for work, education, healthcare and more, wrote Rosenworcel on Twitter.
