Anna Paulina Luna Set to Raise Monthly Internet Costs for Over 65,000 Florida Households

Tomorrow, full funding for the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) will expire, forcing tens of thousands of Florida families to face stark price hikes on their monthly internet bills.

The ACP – a product of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law – serves over 65,000 households in Florida’s 13th Congressional District, providing discounts for monthly internet bills.

A recent survey conducted by the FCC found that more than two-thirds of beneficiaries to the ACP said they had inconsistent or no internet service prior to the program’s existence.

Meanwhile, a majority of House Republicans – including Luna – have called for this program to sunset through her membership in the Republican Study Committee, whose budget calls for the end of the program.

While House Republicans like Luna continue to cave to the demands of Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene, House Democrats have introduced common sense legislation to replenish the fund to keep monthly bills low for millions of Americans who rely on access to affordable internet. Luna has thus far refused to co-sponsor the bipartisan bill that would lower costs for internet bills. 

DCCC Spokesperson Lauryn Fanguen:
“Anna Paulina Luna is once again rubber-stamping the extreme Republican agenda by refusing to lift a finger to lower internet costs for Florida families. That says everything you need to know about her ‘priorities.’”
