BRUNSWICK, Maine (AP) — A group of U.S. senators including Maine independent Sen. Angus King is introducing legislation designed to narrow the "digital divide" in the U.S.
King's office says in a statement the legislation would create a pair of $125 million grant programs focusing on projects that provide "equal access to information technology and educational materials for communities across the nation." King says the new grants would help shrink the homework gap in the country that's caused by unequal access to digital technology.
