Saving The Internet: Net Neutrality Action Alert

Brian Zick

McJoan at dailykos reports that the markup for the Sensenbrenner/Conyers "Internet Freedom and Nondiscrimination Act of 2006," H.R. 5417, is tomorrow. Alas, the telecom's union employees - the Communication Workers of America - have decided to oppose, and they are pressuring Dems. Matt Stoller provides email, phone and fax contact for all members of the Judiciary Committee. Stoller says to voice support for the bipartisan Sensenbrenner-Conyers Net Neutrality bill (HR 5417) in the Judiciary Committee on Thursday, without amendment. Saying "without amendment" is key.
