An Act relating to funding for Internet services for school districts; and providing for an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing state law to increase the funding for Internet services provided to school districts in Alaska. Specifically, the bill changes the existing law to provide funding for schools to receive up to 100 megabits of download speed per second for their Internet services, up from the previous 25 megabits per second. This is intended to ensure that schools qualifying for discounted Internet rates under a federal program can receive sufficient high-speed Internet access. The bill also specifies that the changes take effect immediately upon enactment.
