Get Internet | The White House
www.whitehouse.gov
Learn how President Biden is reducing the cost of high-speed internet and find out if you qualify to sign up.

I saw this as a blip on one of my social media news feeds and figured it would be a good idea to share it, b/c somehow I feel like this probably hasn’t been advertised very widely.

Household income requirements to qualify can be found here. If you don’t qualify, reach out to those in your life who might or share with local community orgs to help get the word out.

There are 2 benefit options as I understand it:

  1. Reimbursement of up to $30 for your internet plan
  2. Some ISPs have signed on to agree to provide internet plans at $30 USD to eligible households, which is then fully covered by the $30 ACP subsidy.

There is also an assistance program of $100 USD toward a personal computer (desktop, laptop, tablet). These must be purchased through participating providers (link here ). There is a “copay” involved with this one, but I haven’t looked into the specifics.

Instructions for how to apply to both are on the site.
