Fellow CWA 7804 Members,
We all know someone that is struggling to make ends meet. The Affordable Connectivity Program helps those less fortunate to be able to afford internet and not have to worry about that bill to pay when other bills come due. At some point, maybe even now, we have all went paycheck to paycheck. Please open the attached flyer and/or go to the following link cwa.org/renewacp and sign the petition to let your representative know to renew this program.
In Solidarity,
Jason Crockett

A new report from CWA and the National Digital Inclusion Alliance (NDIA) shows that Lumen Technologies (formerly CenturyLink) is worsening the digital divide in the U.S. by blatantly failing to invest in essential fiber-optic buildout in lower-income, rural, and Tribal communities. Lumen has cut more than 4,500 CWA-represented jobs since 2017, which has contributed to the problem.
