Hey John,

Last week, the Senate held a third confirmation hearing for FCC nominee Gigi Sohn, a net neutrality champion who we’ve been trying to get confirmed so the agency can restore net neutrality and privacy rules.¹

During the hearing, Senator Ted Cruz used his time to attack Sohn for making small year-end donations to Fight for the Future.^2,3 Calling attention to Fight for the Future’s crowdfunded billboards that have called out politicians from both parties for policies and actions that hinder a free and open internet, Senator Cruz said:

“Fight for the Future is really quite remarkable!”
(It’s true, thank you.)

“They have blasted members of this committee on both sides of the aisle.”
(Yes, we are fiercely nonpartisan and call out corruption and bad policy wherever we see it.)

“[They] astonishingly called for Chairwoman Cantwell to be fired.”
(Technically we just called for her to be removed as the chair of the Senate Commerce Committee, because she was actively standing in the way of confirming Sohn and restoring net neutrality.)⁴

Ted Cruz is known for his fact-free rants, but we have to admit, in this case he’s 100% right! We’re proud of our principled track record of holding politicians accountable for attacks on basic rights, regardless of which party they’re from. And we’re not going to stop now.

Since Ted Cruz loves/hates our billboards so much, we want to crowdfund a brand new one just for him, to tell his constituents how he sold their free speech rights for money from AT&T and Comcast.

Will you chip in to help crowdfund a new billboard calling out Ted Cruz?
