"The House Commerce and Energy Committee's revised draft legislation shortchanges consumers by paving the way for the creation of gatekeepers to the Internet. The bill would set aside telecommunications as the only network industry where competitors are not allowed to access incumbents' networks at just and reasonable rates. COMPTEL will continue to work hard to ensure that Committee members understand the negative effect such legislation will have on consumers and the economy."
