1 SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 

2 Congress finds the following: 

3 (1) Access to computers and computer tech4 nology is indispensable for success in the 21st cen5 tury. Millions of Americans do not regularly use a 

6 computer and research shows that substantial dis7 parities remain in both internet use and the quality 

8 of access with the digital divide concentrated among 

9 older, less educated, less affluent populations, espe10 cially veterans, low-income students, and senior citi11 zens. 

12 (2) The COVID–19 pandemic has highlighted 

13 the gap between those with computer access and 

14 those without. Millions of students, their families, 

15 and workers from across the economy were unable to 

16 do schoolwork, work remotely from home, or connect 

17 to loved ones and their communities because of the 

18 digital divide. 

19 (3) Any Federal program that distributes sur20 plus Federal computers to a public school, an edu21 cational nonprofit, or a nonprofit computer refur22 bisher for repair and distribution would benefit from 

23 a partnership with a nonprofit organization, whose 

24 mission is bridging the digital divide.
