Darren McGee- Office of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo
Gov. Andrew Cuomo appeared in Buffalo Friday, during which he signed legislation requiring internet providers offer $15-per-month online service to qualified low-income households.
Cuomo appeared at the Northland Workforce Training Center in Buffalo, where he signed the legislation.
He explained that the COVID pandemic highlighted the many inequalities faced by many in communities of color, including internet access. Such access, he and bill supporters say, is no longer a luxury but a necessity.
“Now you can apply for a new job, you can apply for new training and for new skills, so much information on the internet. Yes, but you have to be able to get there and you need access to broadband, Cuomo said. You can connect with loved one. You can access government services, you can get a driver s license, you can get a vaccination appointment. All done faster and easier than ever before, if you have broadband.”
