CoSN joins 65 Education Organizations in Asking Congress to Replenish the Emergency Connectivity Fund
October 28, 2022

Organizations across the country have requested additional funding from
Congress to replenish the Emergency Connectivity Fund (ECF). The letter
highlights how districts and libraries across the nation have used the ECF
funding to provide critical access to high-speed internet to meet the needs of
students and families at home and close the digital divide. With requests
for funding being more than double the amount of funding remaining in the
program, many students will remain disconnected at a time when learning loss
and teacher shortages are leading concerns. You can read a copy of this
letter here.
