ACTION NEEDED
Friend,
Comcast, Fox News, and the GOP have done A LOT to stop the confirmation
of Gigi Sohn to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Why?
Because net neutrality is on the line.
Sohn would be the tie-breaking vote on the FCC to protect the free and
open internet. Giant telecom companies have spent millions lobbying
against a free and open internet, and Fox News has spread propaganda
about Sohn - helping to stall her confirmation for over a year. This
is urgent: the Senate must confirm Sohn before the end of the year -
and we're in this fight to win back net neutrality.
Sign our petition: the U.S. Senate must act IMMEDIATELY and confirm Gigi
Sohn. Big telecom corporations want to keep the FCC deadlocked, but the
American people need net neutrality now!

There's a war over the internet. And in order to save Net Neutrality,
protect consumers, and fight back against corporate greed, we must
ensure that the Senate confirms Gigi Sohn as the crucial tie breaking
vote for the open internet.
Comcast is lobbying to protect corporate profits while consumers suffer
with lower internet speeds. Sohn, if confirmed, would be able to help
restore Net Neutrality.
It's not just Big telecom companies like Comcast who are against
Sohn's confirmation. It's Fox News and the GOP, too. Their primary
goal is to allow corporations to amass huge profits off consumers while
leaving all of us with slower internet. Every day that Sohn is not
confirmed is a win for companies like Comcast, AT&T, and Verizon.
The giant corporations spending hundreds of millions lobbying against a
free and open internet benefit from an FCC that keeps the status quo.
This corporate greed hurts consumers, leaving many with "spotty, crappy,
and expensive" internet.
The future of the internet is at stake in these next few weeks, and we
need the Senate to prioritize this confirmation, act before the end of
the year, send Gigi Sohn to the FCC, and restore net neutrality.
Add your name urging the Senate to confirm Sohn immediately and protect
the internet for all. We need net neutrality now!
