ÂÜÀòÍøJoins 30 National Organizations in Letter Opposing CRA
March 11, 2025
ÂÜÀòÍøjoined more than 30 other national organizations in a joint letter to Congress. The letter urges the Senate to vote against S.J.Res.7, a Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolution that would overturn the Federal Communications Commission’s E-Rate hotspot decision last year. The FCC’s Order allows schools and libraries to obtain E-Rate funding to provide wireless internet hotspot devices and service to students, school staff, and library patrons. Almost 20,000 schools and libraries across the country are currently in the process of applying for several hundred thousand hotspots, which often have multiple users. This resolution, if passed, would prevent millions of students and library patrons across the country from obtaining internet access. Read the full letter here.
