Washington DC<\/i> \u2013 Los senadores estadounidenses Ron Wyden y Jeff Merkley se unieron hoy a sus colegas para instar a los l\u00edderes del Congreso a incluir fondos en la legislaci\u00f3n futura que garantice que los estudiantes universitarios y universitarios con mayor necesidad financiera en Oreg\u00f3n y en todo el pa\u00eds tengan acceso a Internet de alta velocidad durante el COVID-19 pandemia.<\/span><\/span> <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIncluso antes de la pandemia, solo el 66 % de los hogares negros, el 61 % de los hogares hispanos y el 63 % de los hogares rurales ten\u00edan acceso a banda ancha, y una encuesta encontr\u00f3 que alrededor del 20 % de los estudiantes universitarios no ten\u00edan acceso constante a la tecnolog\u00eda, como como port\u00e1tiles y tabletas\u201d,<\/b> escribieron los senadores en una carta tambi\u00e9n firmada por 15 colegas del Senado y la C\u00e1mara.<\/span><\/span> <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOtra encuesta encontr\u00f3 que el 30 por ciento de los estudiantes experimentaron dificultades para conectarse a Internet al acceder al material del curso en l\u00ednea durante la pandemia\u201d, <\/b>los legisladores escribieron al l\u00edder de la mayor\u00eda en el Senado, Mitch McConnell, al l\u00edder de la minor\u00eda en el Senado, Charles Schumer, a la presidenta de la C\u00e1mara, Nancy Pelosi, y al l\u00edder de la minor\u00eda en la C\u00e1mara, Kevin McCarthy. <\/b><\/span><\/span> <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSin la acci\u00f3n del Congreso para abordar estas disparidades, los estudiantes corren un grave riesgo de quedarse atr\u00e1s y perder las oportunidades laborales y acad\u00e9micas que brinda Internet\u201d. <\/b>ellos escribieron.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Adem\u00e1s de Wyden y Merkley, otros legisladores que firmaron la carta encabezados por <\/span>La senadora estadounidense Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) y la representante Anna G. Eshoo (D-CA) son los senadores Mazie K. Hirono (D-HI), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Cory Booker (D-NJ), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) y los representantes estadounidenses Doris Matsui (D-CA), GK Butterfield (D-NC), Marcia Fudge (D-OH ), Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-PA), Alma Adams (D-NC), Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) y Tony Cardenas (D-CA).<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

El texto completo de la carta se puede encontrar AQU\u00cd<\/a> y por debajo. Una versi\u00f3n web de este comunicado es aqu\u00ed<\/a>.<\/span><\/span> <\/p>\n

Estimado l\u00edder de la mayor\u00eda McConnell, presidenta Pelosi, l\u00edder de la minor\u00eda Schumer y l\u00edder de la minor\u00eda McCarthy:<\/i><\/span><\/span> <\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Le escribimos para instarlo a que incluya financiamiento dedicado en la legislaci\u00f3n futura para ayudar a garantizar que los estudiantes universitarios y universitarios con la mayor necesidad financiera puedan acceder a Internet de alta velocidad durante la pandemia del coronavirus (COVID-19).<\/i><\/span><\/span> <\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A medida que los colegios y universidades de todo el pa\u00eds han hecho la transici\u00f3n al aprendizaje a distancia para limitar la propagaci\u00f3n del coronavirus, muchos estudiantes que depend\u00edan de los recursos del campus tienen dificultades para continuar su educaci\u00f3n desde casa. Una de las mayores barreras para los estudiantes de color, los estudiantes de \u00e1reas rurales y otros estudiantes desfavorecidos es la falta de acceso a una conexi\u00f3n a Internet confiable y asequible, el equipo requerido para la conectividad y los dispositivos. Todos estos son necesarios para participar en el aprendizaje a distancia. Incluso antes de la pandemia, solo el 66 % de los hogares negros, el 61 % de los hogares hispanos y el 63 % de los hogares rurales ten\u00edan acceso a banda ancha, y una encuesta encontr\u00f3 que alrededor del 20 % de los estudiantes universitarios no ten\u00edan acceso constante a tecnolog\u00eda, como port\u00e1tiles y tabletas. Otra encuesta encontr\u00f3 que el 30 por ciento de los estudiantes experimentaron dificultades para conectarse a Internet al acceder al material del curso en l\u00ednea durante la pandemia. Sin una acci\u00f3n del Congreso para abordar estas disparidades, los estudiantes corren un grave riesgo de quedarse atr\u00e1s y perder oportunidades laborales y acad\u00e9micas que brinda Internet.<\/i><\/span><\/span> <\/i><\/p>\n

Mientras finaliza el semestre de primavera, los colegios y universidades est\u00e1n trasladando las clases y los programas de verano en l\u00ednea y probablemente continuar\u00e1n con el aprendizaje a distancia durante el pr\u00f3ximo a\u00f1o escolar. Como a\u00fan no est\u00e1 claro cu\u00e1ndo estar\u00e1 disponible un tratamiento efectivo o una vacuna, conectar a los estudiantes universitarios a Internet es a\u00fan m\u00e1s esencial. <\/i><\/span><\/span> <\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Aunque la Ley CARES inclu\u00eda fondos para instituciones de educaci\u00f3n superior, no inclu\u00eda fondos dedicados suficientes para garantizar que los estudiantes universitarios y universitarios tengan conectividad a Internet esencial. Es por esta raz\u00f3n que introdujimos la Ley bicameral de apoyo a la conectividad para estudiantes necesitados de educaci\u00f3n superior, que cuenta con el respaldo de m\u00e1s de 60 organizaciones de educaci\u00f3n superior, derechos civiles y de inter\u00e9s p\u00fablico. Lo instamos a que incluya $1 mil millones en fondos dedicados en un futuro paquete de alivio de coronavirus para establecer un fondo de Conectividad de Educaci\u00f3n Superior de Emergencia en la Administraci\u00f3n Nacional de Telecomunicaciones e Informaci\u00f3n para ayudar a garantizar que los estudiantes universitarios y universitarios con la mayor necesidad financiera en colegios y universidades hist\u00f3ricamente negros , los colegios y universidades tribales, las instituciones que atienden a los hispanos y otras instituciones que atienden a las minor\u00edas, as\u00ed como las instituciones que atienden a las zonas rurales, pueden pagar la conectividad a Internet en el hogar, los equipos y los dispositivos, como computadoras port\u00e1tiles y tabletas.<\/i><\/span><\/span> <\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Gracias por su atenci\u00f3n a este tema tan importante. Estamos listos para trabajar con usted para ayudar a mantener conectados a los estudiantes universitarios y universitarios en este momento cr\u00edtico.<\/i><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
