Replying to @BrendanCarrFCC @VP
🛑❗️Fact check: ✔︎ False! The #AffordableConnectivityProgram enacted under President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law as the largest internet affordability program in our nation’s history, is now helping 23 million households—1 in 6 households across America—save $30-$75 on their monthly internet bills. And, because the Biden-Harris Administration worked with internet providers to offer high-speed internet plans that are fully covered by the Affordable Connectivity Program, most eligible households can now get high-speed internet for free. However, it is run out of $$ and the BidenAdministration asked Congress in February to approve more funds. Facts Matter and Truth Wins! #BidenDelivers Receipt. benton.org/headlines/fact-sh…

"Disheartening." That's how our @km_dewit described the reality facing millions of Americans–likely losing internet or feeling wallets strain as funding lapsed for the #AffordableConnectivityProgram, a key federal broadband subsidy. @CNN @CNNBusiness pew.org/4bLQc5z

SD's Sen. John Thune is among the lawmakers resisting continuation of the #AffordableConnectivityProgram. Lawmakers launched it during the pandemic, and more than 23 million low-income households signed on. But now the ACP is out of money. southdakotasearchlight.com/2…

Hey @SpeakerJohnson, @RepWalberg & @RepJames: Why don't you take a break from worshipping your felon idol and start doing your job working for your actual constituents & country?? #DoNothingCongress #GOPIncompetence #AffordableConnectivityProgram
NEWS: Republicans are driving up the cost of high-speed-internet for millions starting TOMORROW by failing to renew the Affordable Connectivity Program. Americans will now pay more to access telehealth appointments, online learning, and job applications. Unbelievable.

The #AffordableConnectivityProgram has helped thousands of NH households access reliable internet, expanding access to health care & job opportunities. But, this program will run out of funding without congressional action—Republicans must work with Democrats to fund the ACP.

As a daughter of rural New Mexico, I know how important internet is for rural families and small businesses to stay connected. If Republicans get their way and defund the #AffordableConnectivityProgram, over 63,000 households in my district will see their internet costs go up.

Over 136,000 households in #LA02 benefit from the #AffordableConnectivityProgram, but House Republicans are letting those savings expire. This will negatively impact health care, education, and small businesses. I will keep fighting with @HouseDemocrats to save this program. @RLC_Leaders

With Millions of Californians to see higher internet bills as the #AffordableConnectivityProgram expires, @LAist compiled several resources including EveryoneOn's Offer Locator Tool for Angelenos searching for low-cost internet and computers in their area. bit.ly/450gLRK

The #AffordableConnectivityProgram is a vital resource, enabling thousands in my district to work, learn, & stay connected. Despite its success, Republicans are blocking its extension. We must act to preserve this essential resource for our communities.

The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) has been a lifeline for countless seniors, providing them with crucial internet services at a reduced cost. So what's next? #acp #affordableconnectivityprogram #savemoney i.mtr.cool/sqcrnevqkg

We need help to stay connected. Our internet will be disconnected in 9 days if we don’t pay this. I cannot afford this bill without help. And we need internet. Please repost, my audience is small. #ACP #AffordableConnectivityProgram
The Affordable Connectivity Program is ending, Bern & I are devastated. We were able to get internet service for $13/month. Without it, the bill shoots up to $85. We got a partial credit for this month & need $54 to cover our bill. Can you help? V:Erin-Long-1220 C:$ErinLong1220

Someone tell @MikeJohnson to get his butt back to DC and vote on the #AffordableConnectivityProgram. I truly believe the lack of funding for this program is deliberate. They WANT to keep people stupid. Our children's futures are in their hands and they don't care. #RenewACP #ACP
