Big news here for any and all who followed the controversy around California's AT&T-backed landline phase-out bill. Huge loss for AT&T after it spent nearly $2M lobbying CA lawmakers in Q2.
Big news here for any and all who followed the controversy around California's AT&T-backed landline phase-out bill. Huge loss for AT&T after it spent nearly $2M lobbying CA lawmakers in Q2.
AB 470 is officially dead in the Senate—a huge win for CA communities! The bill would have let AT&T walk away from providing landline services that many residents rely on. Big thanks to @CASenCaballero, Senate Appropriations Committee members & @ilike_mike for standing with us!
"...by selectively choosing where to offer service, AT&T would engage in corporate abandonment that puts lives, livelihoods and entire communities at risk." #CALeg prioritize public safety over corporate profits! #NOonAB470 amp.sacbee.com/opinion/op-ed/…
Tomorrow, #AB470 will be heard in the Senate Approps Committee! 🚨 This bill will cost CA millions it doesn’t have, put public safety & property at risk, & drive up costs for ratepayers! 📈 💸 #AB470 = a worse CA! #NOonAB470
"No matter which way you slice it, federal changes to the BEAD program do not override the Supreme Court's affirmation of a state's authority to establish a broadband affordability standard." - NextGen's Arturo Juarez on CA's affordability bill. More ⤵️ arstechnica.com/tech-policy/20…
AB 470 is not a telco modernization bill. It’s deregulation wrapped in equity rhetoric. It weakens consumer protections, abandons oversight, and leaves communities disconnected. That’s not progress. That’s privatization. #StopAB470 #CALeg #CAAssembly
AB 470 is not a telco modernization bill. It’s deregulation wrapped in equity rhetoric. It weakens consumer protections, abandons oversight, and leaves poor communities disconnected. That’s not progress. That’s privatization. #StopAB470 #CALeg
FACT CHECK: #AB470 turns a state-mandated consumer protection into a corporate option. Protect community interests - #CALeg #CAAssembly vote NO on AB 470!
AB 470 is AT&T's exit plan, NOT a community plan! This bill eliminates accountability and lets AT&T abandon basic phone service with no guarantees for rural communities. We urge Assembly members: VOTE NO on AB 470 @AsmMarkGonzalez @AsmSoria @BuffyWicks @AsmPacheco @AsmAguiarCurry
#AB470 serves corporate, telecom interests, NOT community interests. Maintain critical consumer protections for phone connectivity in CA. #CALeg #CAAssembly OPPOSE AB 470!
Digital equity is critical for LAUSD English learner families. GPSN’s new report shows barrier-free internet access dropped from 24% to 10%, while 49% now prioritize free home internet, up 16 points! 📲 Read more: gpsnla.org/familyinsights…

What an unforgettable day in Sacramento! 🙌 PIQE was honored to be part of the 2nd Annual Digital Equity Advocacy Day, joining more than 90 passionate advocates from across California—nearly triple last year’s turnout! We held 30+ legislative meetings and helped advance…
Digital Equity Advocacy Day was a success! Our PIQE team and parent ambassadors had meaningful conversations with the Office of the Senator, @SenMariaEDurazo and Assembly Member, @asmtasha about closing the digital divide in our communities. Huge thanks to DELA and…
CA has the 3rd highest cost of living in the nation & internet costs an average $95/month. That’s why Healing and Justice Center is in Sacramento today with #DigitalEquityLA & @CADigitalEquity, demanding lawmakers take action to pass broadband affordability & consumer protections
Today Healing and Justice Center is showing up in Sacramento to make clear: communities deserve fast, reliable, and affordable internet—no matter their zip code. It’s #AdvocacyDay and we’re bringing the fight to Sacramento for #DigitalEquity! #DigitalEquityLA @CADigitalEquity
CA has the third-highest cost of living in the nation & internet costs an average of $95/mo! 🛜 That’s why NextGen is advocating w/ #DigitalEquityLA & @CADigitalEquity, that #CALeg take action to pass #AB353 & #AB1271 for broadband affordability & consumer protections.
AB 353 would guarantee a high speed $15/month broadband plan for low-income Californians. It’s time CA advances a long-term affordability solution! #PassAB353 #InternetIsEssential @AsmEGarcia @AsmBlancaRubio @PatrickForAD26
AB 470 turns a consumer protection into a corporate choice, letting AT&T walk away from its obligation to provide basic phone service. This is dangerous for rural, senior, and low-income communities. #StopAB470 @asmtasha @AsmBlancaRubio @AsmEGarcia @AsmLowenthal
