WATCH LIVE: Health markup on 23 bills including a bill to extend access to telehealth ⬇️
Internet affordability is key to participating in telehealth, but Republicans' refusal to renew funding for the Affordable Connectivity Program will shut millions out.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is a game changer in connecting all Americans to fast, reliable and affordable internet service.

should stop wasting time and join Democrats to save the Affordable Connectivity Program.
Farmers, seniors, veterans, and millions of Americans are counting on us.
The Affordable Connectivity Program – helping 23 million households save on monthly internet bills – is now set to expire this month.
@POTUS
calls on Republicans in Congress to extend this program, so millions of Americans can continue to access this essential benefit.
Last week, the House debated bills about home appliances.
Rights for Refrigerators! Liberty for Laundry! Dignity for Dishwashers!
The House should be protecting the rights, liberty, and dignity of women in America.
I said as much on the house floor.

Congressional Republicans are raising internet costs for more than 79,000 households in IL-02 by failing to fund the Affordable Connectivity Program.
It’s time for my Republican colleagues to work with Democrats to renew funding for this crucial program.
WATCH LIVE: Committee Republicans' field hearing on the state of rural broadband in Bakersfield, CA.
ALL of them OPPOSED the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law that’s making broadband more accessible & affordable in rural communities nationwide.
Several House Republicans are participating in a field hearing in Bakersfield, CA today to talk about broadband.
Yet, none of them voted for the infrastructure law that is funding the expansion of high-speed internet in our communities.
