As schools
across the country transition to hybrid or online-learning, they’re
running into a massive problem: millions of households don’t have access
to the internet.
In the 21st century, that’s a failure of government. We have the power to
ensure that every person has universal broadband access, and in fact, it’s
our obligation to do so. Folks can’t thrive in the modern world without
it.
[ [link removed] ]That’s why I’m joining with my soon-to-be colleague Jamaal Bowman in a
petition demanding universal access to broadband. With your help, we can
show Congress that there’s a popular mandate for this critical policy.

Nearly 50% of households with income levels below the poverty line lack
stable access to the internet. That’s not just an inconvenience. It adds
massive barriers towards accessing social services, it makes applying for
and finding jobs much harder, it prohibits comprehensive online learning,
and so much more.
And in a global pandemic, when many public sources of internet access are
otherwise closed, this reality means that folks who need our help are
falling even further behind. Right now, we’re hearing reports of kids
spending hours in fast food restaurant parking lots because their schools
are online, and they’re doing everything they can to not fall behind.
[ [link removed] ]This isn’t the way things have to be. Will you sign your name to join
our call for universal broadband access, and make sure that everyone has a
fair shake in the 21st century economy?
Thanks for your support,
