    The order, published on Friday (August 25), officially waives Lifeline eligibility requirements for a period of six months for households
    receiving FEMA assistance. Once enrolled, households may participate in
    the Lifeline program rCo which provides a monthly subsidy of $9.25 for broadband or $5.25 for voice service rCo for one year.
