Rep Doyle Announces Cosponsors of Legislation to Save Net Neutrality

Rep Mike Doyle (D-PA) announced the names of the Members of Congress who have asked to cosponsor his legislation to reject the Federal Communications Commission’s order to end the Open Internet and eliminate Net Neutrality. “We’ve made good progress so far in getting Members to sign on as original cosponsors of our bill to restore Net Neutrality, and I will continue to seek additional cosponsors in the weeks ahead,” Congressman Doyle said in releasing the list of names. “There’s overwhelming public support for preserving Net Neutrality, so it’s no surprise that there’s strong support in Congress as well. I’m confident that if there’s enough public pressure, Congress will overturn the FCC’s order killing net neutrality.” “Senator Markey announced today that they have 50 cosponsors in the Senate, and we hope to mirror their efforts in the House,” Rep Doyle added. “The FCC’s repeal of the Open Internet Order gutted net neutrality, abdicated the FCC’s stewardship over critical communications networks, and recast the public interest in terms of what matters to Wall Street, not to Main Street, and it will hinder rather than help any efforts to close the digital divide,” observed Representative Anna Eshoo (D-CA). “I’m proud to be an original cosponsor of the CRA to demonstrate to millions of Americans that reliable, net-neutral broadband should indeed be protected.”
