This episode of The Divide features John Horrigan, senior fellow at the Benton Institute for Broadband and Society. We discussed a new report released from Benton assessing the impact of the end of the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) on low-income households and the economy at large. According to that study, nearly half of ACP households surveyed reported that without the subsidy they might cut off service or downgrade their plan. The study further estimates that ACP's end will result in over "$2 billion in lost consumer financial benefits and service delivery efficiencies for health care providers."
