"The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) ended on May 31, 2024, providing subsidies to approximately 23 million households, highlighting the ongoing need for affordable internet access."
"As internet access becomes essential for work and education, many former ACP users are losing service; a FCC contractor found 25% had or were canceling their internet."
"While the Broadband Equity Access and Deployment program aims to provide affordable internet, bureaucracy has delayed these potential services until at least next year."
"Despite the end of the ACP, low-income options may still exist through local ISPs, which could provide discounted plans for eligible users."
