Extend the ACP.

Keep communities connected by funding the Affordable Connectivity Program.

What is the ACP?

The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) is a federal subsidy program that provides a monthly discount on internet services and devices for eligible households.

Thanks to the ACP, millions of American households are currently getting access to affordable broadband services and connected devices.

The ACP is running out.

The ACP uses funds provided by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.

ACP funding is expected to run out as early as the first half of 2024, potentially leaving millions of Americans unconnected or unable to get the services they need. High-speed internet has become essential to participating in modern life.

“…the investment value of this program will likely yield 160,000 in new jobs and contribute $37 billion to U.S. GDP, including over $9 billion in employment earnings.”

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING

The ACP is not a welfare or entitlement program.

It is a direct-to-consumer broadband-specific voucher that has enabled more than 20 million American households to access the online economy, educational opportunities, telehealth, and more.

The ACP has also been a critical complement to my efforts to expand access to broadband
infrastructure in rural, unserved communities across the country.

With $42.5 billion in Broadband, Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) funding going to the States, it is vital that we make sure this once-in-a-generation opportunity does not go to waste.

Unfortunately, ACP is set to run out of funds as soon as early 2024.

For conservatives who are rightly concerned about traditional government subsidies, I humbly suggest that extending the ACP by appropriating additional funds for the program is well within our economic principles, even when we absolutely must shrink overall federal spending.
