Stand Up for Internet Freedom

Subject: Stand Up for Internet Freedom
The telephone and cable companies who want to control the Internet underestimated us. Late last week in a strong bipartisan vote, the House Judiciary Committee approved a bill - over industry lobbyists' objections - called HR 5417, the Internet Freedom and Non-Discrimination Act. Now we need to make sure that the full House of Representatives has a chance to consider this critical legislation. http://www.commoncause.org/InternetFreedom
Tell the House not to block a vote on a free and open Internet. HR 5417 ensures that we will continue to enjoy net neutrality, the right to access whatever we want on the Internet, and to use any lawful application, without interference from our Internet service provider. http://www.commoncause.org/InternetFreedom
Congress needs to hear that you care about the future of freedom and innovation on the Internet. Please send an email today. http://www.commoncause.org/InternetFreedom
Thank you for all you do.
Sincerely, Chellie Pingree
President Common Cause
