Help us save the ACP!

The United Church of Christ Media Justice Ministry played a critical role in developing the Affordable Connectivity Program, and we need your help to save it!

Senator Ben Ray Luján recently introduced a bill, S.4317, to save this critical program. It already has the support of a bipartisan coalition of senators. Will you send your senators a letter asking them to co-sponsor and pass this legislation? We cannot let the summer pass without refunding the program in time for kids to return to school.
