U.S. House of Representatives
Washington, D.C. 20515

Dear Representative,

On behalf of the more than one million members and supporters of the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste, I urge you to vote in favor of S.J. Res. 7, a joint resolution of disapproval under the Congressional Review Act (CRA), which was passed by the Senate on May 8, 2025. 

S.J. Res. 7 disapproves and nullifies the Federal Communications Commission’s August 20, 2024, rule, Addressing the Homework Gap Through the E-Rate Program. The rule would permit schools and libraries participating in the Universal Service Fund’s (USF) E-Rate program to purchase discounted Wi-Fi hotspots and associated mobile connectivity services for off-campus use.  This expansion of the E-Rate program strains the USF budget, further increasing the cost to taxpayers through the USF contribution tax, and is contrary to the purpose of the E-Rate program. 

For these reasons, I again urge you to vote in favor of S.J. Res. 7.  All votes related to this resolution may be among those considered for CCAGW’s 2025 Congressional Ratings.

Sincerely,

Tom Schatz,
President, CCAGW
