Mayor Kate Gallego: FCC Grant for Affordable Connectivity Program

Idea Category: Broadband

BROADBAND - Arizona: Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego, alongside Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel, announced a grant to connect more households to high-speed internet. The funding will help community-based non-profit organizations assist residents in accessing the Affordable Connectivity Program, an initiative created by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to provide a monthly broadband stipend for eligible households. Currently, about 80,000 Phoenix households are enrolled, and Gallego estimates that an additional 100,000 may be eligible.
