2. Urge your Representative to sign the Affordable Connectivity Program discharge petition!
In 2024, the internet is a necessity, not a luxury. Children need internet access to do their homework, adults need internet access for work, and communication with doctors, teachers, government services, and other essential communication is now almost exclusively online. One in six households relies on the Affordable Connectivity Program to defray the costs of broadband, but this program will run out of funding soon. Click here to contact your House member and urge them to sign the discharge petition to bring the Affordable Connectivity Program Extension Act to the House Floor vote a vote.
3. Tell your Representative to reject proposals to weaken SNAP!
Congress is considering competing proposals in the House and Senate to reauthorize the farm bill, which includes the Supplementary Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, also known as food stamps). The House bill would prevent SNAP from keeping pace with the needs of families over time. Click here to email your House member and urge them to reject proposals that would weaken SNAP.
