Matsui Statement on Chairman Pai's Lifeline Proposal

Washington, D.C. Today, Congresswoman Doris Matsui (D-CA) issued the following statement on the FCC's proposal on the Lifeline program:

"I'm very concerned with the direction the FCC is taking with the Lifeline program. This program is a critical tool in our work to close the digital divide so that all Americans can do their homework online, apply for jobs, and communicate with their loved ones. We should be focusing on strengthening our efforts to ensure that every family has access to the services they need to compete in the 21st century economy."
