| https://sablan.house.gov/high-speed-internet-students | High-speed internet for students | 2019-11-25 | 2019 | 2019-11 | Democrat | House | MP | Gregorio Sablan | S001177 | sablan.house.gov | legacy | High-speed internet for students Nov 25, 2019 About 12 million school-aged children nationwide lack high-speed broadband internet at home. That creates a homework gap between those students and their classmates who do have broadband at home. To make sure all our students have the internet access they need, I joined several of my colleagues in introducing theClosing the Homework Gap Through Mobile Hotspots Act. The Act establishes a $100 million grant program that Marianas libraries, PSS, and NMC could all use to loan mobile broadband hotspots to students. Our goal is to close the homework gap and ensure every child in our country can access to the technology needed to succeed in their education no matter where they live. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
