Dear Friend,

Since the repeal of net neutrality, Big Cable has been caught slowing down
the speeds of Netflix, YouTube, and other websites "everywhere, all the
time."^1

And yet Democratic Senator Kyrsten Sinema STILL won't support the Save the
Internet Act.

In fact, she's working with one of Comcast's favorite Republicans on
anti-net neutrality legislation that will almost certainly block states
from enacting net neutrality protections -- just after a federal court
said they have the power to do so.^2

[ [link removed] ]Kyrsten Sinema is the only Democrat in the entire Congress who doesn't
support the bill to restore net neutrality. Will you donate to hold her
accountable in her home state of Arizona?

Last year, a bipartisan majority in the Senate voted to overrule Ajit Pai
and restore net neutrality.

But after the 2018 election, we may no longer even have a majority in the
Senate in favor of net neutrality — because of Kyrsten Sinema.

Sinema was elected in 2018, and even though she claimed to support net
neutrality when she originally ran for Congress, she's been working hand
in hand with net neutrality's #1 arch enemy in the Senate, Republican
Roger Wicker, to undermine support for the Save the Internet Act.

Why the change of heart? Maybe it's because she's gotten $134,000 from Big
Cable.^3

There's simply no way we'll be able to save net neutrality if we have
Democrats working against us. Thankfully, her own constituents are just as
fed up as we are. Arizona Democrats have introduced a censure motion
against her that will be voted on in January. That means we have four
months to keep the pressure on and convince her to listen to her
constituents.^4

We're mobilizing constituents to flood Senator Sinema with calls and
demand she support net neutrality. Will you donate to help turn up the
heat?

[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll donate to help save net neutrality and hold Kyrsten Sinema
accountable in her home state of Arizona.

Thanks for standing with us.
