California’s net neutrality mess that imperils veterans being cleaned up by man who created rule

The Biden administration’s point man on the telecom industry, National Economic Council official Tim Wu, is known as the father of “net neutrality.” Now he finds himself in the awkward position of pushing back against the law he’s fought so hard to promote. FOX Business has learned that Wu is lobbying the telecom industry to find what has been described as a “work around” so the service to veterans can be saved. People with direct knowledge of the matter say Wu has been having conversations with Tom Power, senior vice president and general counsel of the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association (CTIA), one of Washington’s most prominent telecom lobby groups, to maintain veteran’s access to the program even if it technically violates the new law.
