Broadband Coalition Launches Pro-Competition Petition

At least 6800 people have signed a petition created in June 2015 by competitive carrier organization Broadband Coalition that asks policy makers to take steps to improve broadband competition.

Broadband Coalition was formed in 2012, initially focusing largely on issues related to competition in the business broadband market, but now also referencing broadband competition for consumers. “Broadband competition brings lower prices, better service and more innovation,” the on-line petition says. “Policy makers must make broadband competition a priority in Washington, D.C. Our leaders must encourage broadband competition across all technology platforms, and make access to more choices available to all.”
