The Emergency Broadband Benefit Program will provide eligible households with discounts of up to $50 a month for broadband services. It also will provide a one-time discount of up to $100 on a computer or tablet for eligible households. 

Under the law, the Emergency Broadband Benefit Program is open to households that participate in an existing low-income or pandemic relief program offered by a broadband provider; Lifeline subscribers, including those that are on Medicaid or accept SNAP benefits; households with kids receiving free and reduced-price lunch or school breakfast; Pell grant recipients; and those who have lost jobs and seen their income reduced in the last year.
