As someone who has personally talked to kids who have to hang out outside McDonald’s after closing so they could get a WiFi signal on their phone to research an essay for class, this is a pretty big deal in both rural and non-rural settings
53% of rural students lack access to high-speed, home Internet compared to only 23% of their suburban peers. This disparity negatively impacts educational opportunities for rural students & I'm leading the Rural Broadband Acceleration Act to close this gap.https://bit.ly/2TLxhBV
