Sign On to the Community Letter to Protect Oregon Lifeline

Oregon assistance programs are under threat again! The Trump administration is once again putting assistance programs that help Oregonians in its crosshairs. This time, they’re targeting the Lifeline program. Federal regulators are using the same old language of cutting down fraud and streamlining this program, but we know that this is just another attempt to cut government assistance programs that benefit real people.

The Oregon Lifeline program is an Oregon State-administered, but federally funded, assistance program focused on helping low-income families get connected with phone and internet services. Additionally, the program also seeks to help Native American communities, which have historically lacked connectivity and digital equity.

We’re asking you to sign on to a letter for federal regulators asking them not to go through with the proposed rulemaking that would harm Oregonians. We will deliver the Community Letter to Protect Lifeline to the Federal Communications Commission later this month. Sign on by May 3, 2026, to make your voice heard!
