Boston City Council takes up equitable access to broadband
Boston (MA) City Councilors held a hearing on the need for better, more equitable broadband connection citywide and improved digital equity in the city. They also discussed changes to existing federal assistance for internet access. The hearing was called due to concerns over the ability of all Boston residents, regardless of where in the city they live and how much money they make, to access reliable internet connections.
