Hi,
Last week, a federal court struck down Net Neutrality rules that prevent
Big Telecom companies from throttling or blocking web access.^1 This
ruling gives enormous power to internet service providers like Verizon,
Comcast, and AT&T, and hurts consumers and workers who rely on the
internet.
Americans want an open and free internet, while Comcast, Verizon, AT&T,
and the Trump administration want to gate it off for the benefit of the
wealthiest corporations.
Congress must take action now and stand up to Big Telecom and its allies
in the Trump White House.

The Obama administration instituted Net Neutrality rules to ensure that
Big Telecom couldn’t charge consumers more for certain websites or degrade
service. The first Trump administration repealed the rule before President
Biden’s Federal Communications Commission (FCC) brought back the critical
policy. The new court ruling could be the end of fair internet access,
unless Congress protects Net Neutrality.^2
Trump’s choice for FCC commissioner, Brandon Carr, said that he was
“pleased” with the ruling and pledged that “the work to unwind the Biden
administration’s regulatory overreach will continue.”^3
The internet is under threat and we need our representatives in Congress
to save Net Neutrality.
