Save the internet: Overturn the FCC's repeal of Net Neutrality!
We call on Congress to use the Congressional Review Act to overturn the Federal Communications Commission's repeal of net neutrality.
Why is this important?
July 2018 update: The FCC's repeal of net neutrality went into effect on June 11th. Now it's even more important to get lawmakers to act. Senators passed a resolution to save net neutrality via the Congressional Review Act. It's up to our congressional representatives to do the same.
-------
On December 14, the Federal Communications Commission repealed net neutrality, handing control of the internet to Big Telecom.
The repeal of net neutrality gives monopolistic internet providers like Verizon, Comcast, and AT&T the power to block, censor, and slow down your favorite sites on the web. 83% of Americans support net neutrality protections.
Congress, as the oversight body for the FCC, can overturn this massive giveaway to the telecom industry. Since the FCC voted to end net neutrality, 20 senators have already pledged to reverse the FCC's vote, and we can convince others to join us. We need to build on this momentum -- tell your member of Congress to support the resolution to restore net neutrality now!
