The ACP – a product of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law – serves more than 90,000 households in Texas’ 15th District, lowering costs 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 Monica De La Cruz – actively called for this program to sunset through their Republican Study Committee, whose budget calls for the end of the program.
While House Republicans like De La Cruz 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.
Monica De La Cruz has shamelessly tried to mislead TX-15 voters by half-heartedly signing onto the bill while refusing to disavow her previous efforts to end the program.
DCCC Spokesperson Lauryn Fanguen:
“At every turn, Monica De La Cruz caves to her Republican party bosses by enabling their extreme agenda, even if it means raising internet costs for South Texas families. De La Cruz’s misguided ‘priorities’ will cost her in November.”
