Malliotakis Needs to Advocate for Equity for NYC Students to Have Better Internet Access
As the only rep from #NYC on the Transportation & Infrastructure Committee, I continue to advocate for a tailored and bipartisan bill that focuses on the transportation needs & infrastructure improvements/ modernization that would benefit #StatenIsland, #Brooklyn & rest of #NYC. pic.twitter.com/hJQv92OdMB

Internet access is essential now – like a textbook was years ago. All of our elected politicians should be advocating for equity and providing students what they need to connect to their schools.
The students working remotely during this pandemic are rockstars. Many haven’t been inside a school building in over a year, yet they show up early to their Zoom meeting and are ready to learn every day!
When they lose connection to their class, they come right back on and don’t complain, even when it happens multiple times.
These students support and cheer on their classmates, who they have never met in person. While many people will tell you when the students have lost over this year, there have also been many gains.
Hugs,
