Johnson Newspaper Corp. New York broadband providers are slow to react to the details of a new state program requiring mid-sized and large companies to provide internet service for low-income families for $15 per month. The state’s historic $212 billion budget, which the Legislature adopted nearly a week late Wednesday night, mandated a new program requiring companies that provide internet connection to 20,000 households or more to offer broadband service of at least 25 Mbps at the discounted rate of $15 per month to state households in need. Lara Pritchard, senior director of communications for Charter Communications’s Northeast Region, would not comment on the state’s new program or the potential fiscal impacts on the company.

WISCONSIN More than a year into the coronavirus pandemic, making a dollar stretch as far as possible remains a daily undertaking for the millions/thousands in Wisconsin and other U.S. states still going to bed hungry.
A new U.S. Department of Agriculture report, however, illustrates how stretching that dollar may be harder than ever right now.
Grocery store prices are rising nationwide as the pandemic wears on. In fact, the cost of a supermarket trip is up 3.5 percent from a year ago, according to the USDA report 75 percent higher than the 20-year average.
