The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) recently announced that 2.3 million households have enrolled in the Emergency Broadband Benefit (EBB) program in its first three weeks. The EBB program provides a discount on both broadband service and needed equipment, such as a modem. Lawmakers authorized the EBB in December as part of a $2 trillion coronavirus aid package. Over 1,000 Internet service providers (ISP) are participating in the program, which provides a monthly discount on Internet services and a one-time discount on a connected device for eligible households.
