The digital divide exists and hurts those most in need of help. Please do your part to erase the digital divide.

As a K-12 Tech Director we are in dire need of hotspots in our rural district. Any additional funds would be welcomed. Make this happen.

There are a few things that we can give our children to set them up for life. One is love and the second is a good education.

E=Rate performs wonderfully in their current role in funding support. I believe their current infrastructure would make them an ideal candidate to support online education for our students. Thank you.

This is essential for thousands of our students that are currently cut off from our distance learning efforts.

As a public school superintendent, this is not only helpful, it has become essential!

As a K-12 Tech Director who has had to rely on other grant options to provide cellular hotspots, any support that the eRate program can add for home connectivity would be welcome!

It is very critical that we provide connectivity to students especially at the schools/districts with high poverty level. At these schools, summer learning loss was a big issue and was negatively impacting the students already. Additional instruction loss will deeply affect their lives. I strongly support this legislation so that the students stay connected to their online classrooms and continue education.

Districts are struggling in attempts to deliver instruction in this new arena of distance learning. None were equipped to deal with teaching students remotely any more than the health care system was ready for the virus attack. We need help and fast.

Physical distancing has really exposed the extent to which the digital divide makes education more difficult! Please help keep communities safer by funding this initiative!

Please approve this much-needed change to the eRate program! We have many students without Internet access at home.

I am technology coordinator for a small, rural school. Because of COVID-19, we have lost contact with some of our students because they do not have the technology with which to do their distance learning. Please help us as we try to provide a free, public education!
