464 Education Leaders Press Congress to Save E-Rate

A group of 464 education leaders has signed a public appeal urging Congress to preserve the federal E-Rate program, which helps schools and libraries afford internet access. The letter asks lawmakers to protect funding amid budget and policy debates in Washington. Supporters say the program is essential for closing the digital divide in classrooms, and the coordinated statement signals broad concern across the education sector.

Why now: E-Rate funding faces potential cuts or changes in ongoing congressional budget and policy negotiations.
