Citing remote learning needs, Cuomo calls for $15-a-month internet cap for low-income NY families
“To address inequities related to remote learning, Gov. Andrew Cuomo wants to cap monthly internet fees at $15 for low-income New York families, he said Tuesday. He also wants to establish a “hardship” fund to cover internet costs for low-income K-12 students who cannot afford service for the remainder of the pandemic. His office did not immediately disclose details on how much this would cost or who would qualify.”
