'More Good Stuff to Come' on E-rate, Rosenworcel Says

The FCC has "more good stuff to come with the E-rate program," said acting Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel during The Hill's event Wednesday. The $7 billion approved by Congress in the latest COVID-19 relief bill expected to soon become law (see 2103100065) will "help update" the program, she said. State and local officials can help that effort by identifying how many students lack access as the commission works to improve broadband data maps, she added.
