Protect Net Neutrality

The Issue

Earlier this year, the Federal Communications Commission approved strong Net Neutrality protection by reclassifying broadband as a utility. Over four million Americans made their voices heard over the past year in what was the single largest public response to an FCC decision ever!

But now, some members of Congress are trying to sneak in language to government funding bills that would undermine the Net Neutrality protections we fought so hard for. Many of these politicians have received thousands of dollars in donations from the ISPs (internet service providers) like Comcast and Verizon who oppose Net Neutrality.

We showed the FCC how important Net Neutrality is. Now the ball is in our court to preserve it and show strong support for the FCC’s decision to ensure paid-prioritization, blocking, and throttling are non-existent on the web.

Sign our petition asking Congress to protect Net Neutrality.

Don’t let big-dollar interests drown out and distract from the millions of citizens who made their opinions known. Let’s stand united for an open internet and make sure our Representatives actually represent us.
