[Xmca-l] FW: Tell the Senate: Save net neutrality

[David H Kirshner]

Sorry to intrude a U.S. political issue into XMCA deliberations, but a free and open internet in the U.S. is likely to have international consequences, not to mention direct implications for listservs like XMCA.

Urge your senators to save net neutrality and internet freedom.



Call 202-804-0904<tel:202-804-0904>











The Senate is just one vote away from passing a measure to block Donald Trump’s attack on an open and free internet.

Senator Ed Markey recently introduced a bill to overturn the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) decision to repeal net neutrality, and it already has the support of half of the Senate. But it needs one more vote to proceed.

Your call can flip the 51st senator in support of net neutrality. Call 202-804-0904 and urge your senators to stop Trump’s plan to mess up the internet<tel:202-804-0904>.
[Save net neutrality: call 202-804-0904]<tel:202-804-0904>[Save net neutrality: call 202-804-0904]<tel:202-804-0904>

Donald Trump has packed the FCC full of commissioners with deep ties to corporations like Verizon and AT&T. These commissioners and corporate lobbyists have quickly worked to reverse the net neutrality order issued in 2015 under President Obama.

Last month, the FCC voted to overturn net neutrality, opening the door for corporations to block content or make users pay extra just to utilize basic internet services. Now, Senator Markey’s bill is our best chance to reverse Donald Trump’s assault on equal access to the internet.

Every Democratic senator has publicly indicated support for this bill, but now Republican senators must decide if they side with corporations like AT&T and Comcast or with the people.

Call 202-804-0904 and tell your senators that you will hold them responsible for wrecking the internet if they vote against net neutrality.<tel:202-804-0904>
