A House Communications Subcommittee staff memo notes Democrats' concerns about the network neutrality repeal process. The memo in advance of a March 9 and markup indicates they would prefer Republicans use a normal bill, rather than a Congressional Review Act resolution, to fight the regulations. (Democrats would prefer no repeal effort at all; they support the regulations). The GOP can block amendments on a resolution of disapproval, but not on ordinary legislation.
