About Digital Equity Day

Mark your calendars for Digital Equity Advocacy Day on Wednesday, June 25th, from 11 AM to 4 PM! Join us at the Massachusetts State House or from your local district office to champion digital equity.
 
The day begins with a legislative briefing highlighting key bills focused on internet affordability, digital navigator credentialing, telehealth parity, and more. Following the briefing, we’ll meet with legislators to discuss the bills and their impact. (in Boston and in local district offices!)
