Internet service providers requirement to provide low-cost broadband Internet to low-income Minnesotans

This bill requires Minnesota internet service providers to offer low-cost broadband to eligible low-income households. It mandates providers to offer 25 Mbps service for $15/month or 200 Mbps for $20/month to households receiving Minnesota Family Investment Program, SNAP, medical assistance, or LIHEAP benefits. Providers must report annually on enrollment, eligibility verification, advertising efforts, and service details to the commission. The law also requires equal contract terms (excluding price/speed) and promotes provider outreach to eligible customers.
