Bill to Revive ACP Introduced in the House
U.S. Representatives Nikki Budzinski (D-IL) and Mike Carey (R-OH) introduced bipartisan, bicameral legislation to renew the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) – the FCC program that helped low-income households afford access to high-speed internet.
The ACP ran out of money at the end of May. At a recent congressional hearing, FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel told lawmakers the Commission is maintaining the ACP enrollment data in case Congress is able to revive the program that had 23 million enrolled households, Inside Towers reported.
