Schools across US protest FCC plan that could disconnect kids from Internet

Schools across the U.S. are protesting an FCC plan that could disconnect students from the internet. The FCC chair has threatened to cut funding for the E-Rate program, which provides internet access to low-income schools and libraries.

The FCC cites excessive screen time as a reason for the potential cuts, but educators argue that internet access is crucial for students' education and well-being.

This development could have significant implications for students' access to educational resources and digital learning opportunities.
