An Illinois lawmaker wants to renew the Affordable Connectivity Program after its expiration earlier this spring.

The A-C-P program ensures that households receive broadband internet at a discount and a one-time hundred-dollar discount to purchase a laptop. However, the program expired at the end of April, and Congressman Eric Sorensen wants his counterparts to renew the program.

The A-C-P is limited to one monthly service discount and only provides help to eligible households. The program expired at the end of April.
