This Thursday, April 4 join us for a virtual #townhall with Assemblymember Mia Bonta, CCF, #OaklandUndivided, The Children’s Partnership (TCP) #KeepKidsCovered, and NextGen Policy to discuss #AB2239 , a bill that cracks down on digital discrimination in California.
Register: bit.ly/AB2239TownHall
The The FCC’s #DigitalDiscrimination Rules + LA’s historic passage of the Digital Discrimination Ordinance make one thing clear: Disparate impact is discrimination & it’s up to all of us to ensure equitable #broadbandaccess as a 21st century civil right.

#OU is proud to co-sponsor Assemblymember Mia Bonta’s AB 2239, making CA the 1st state to codify Fed rules protecting against pricing discrimination & disparate investment—practices that disproportionately impact low-income, & Black & brown communities, & exacerbate the #digitaldivide !
THIS WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 7 is the LAST DAY to apply for the #AffordableConnectivityProgram = $30/mo discount on your home internet that is expected to run out of funding by April. If you’ve been approved, you have until 8:59PM PT to contact your provider and enroll. Don’t delay!
“It is not charity to give people what they are paying for. Digital discrimination is not some unfunded mandate for Internet companies, but as a small check on their incredible power over the digital lives of so many within our community.”
