"The Universal Service Fund's E-Rate program helps connect schools to the internet so that every child has the same opportunities to learn. However, there is currently no provision that requires schools to prohibit the use of addictive social media apps that distract students. Our legislation would help ensure these dollars from the program are used for learning and not for children to use social media."
