Please Keep Internet Neutrality

Stop the big telecommunication companies from using the Internet to pad their already large bottom lines. They are trying to persuade Congress to adopt a pay-to-play Internet. If adopted, free Internet will no longer be free. Please vote to keep "Net Neutrality."

Why is this important?

I am a small business owner. The proposal by the FCC to create a pay-to-play fast lane on the Internet could harm my business if I am not able to pay the higher costs of the new Internet policies. I am a parent and my child uses the Internet to gain information to successfully complete her work. If the websites she uses can't pay the higher costs then her access to research and information for her schoolwork will be limited.
