Why this petition matters

Started by Dirk Tillotson

Comcast has advertised free internet to low income families during the COVID crisis, however it currently bars any family that has a debt of more than a year old.  Internet access is critical to students whose school buildings are closed.  Comcast should provide access to free internet to all low income students during this crisis, and not punish children for the years old issues their parents may have.  Compel Comcast to do its part during the crisis and to not exacerbate the digital divides and opportunity gaps that our most undeserved families already experience.
