FCC chairman Ajit Pai repealed all network neutrality protections in 2017, undoing 20 years of FCC oversight, despite millions of comments submitted to the FCC supporting the protections.
We’re launched Cultivate to make network neutrality a core campaign issue for the 2020 election, in order to win back protections that kept the internet open for startups, small businesses, democratic debate and underrepresented voices
We demand all 2020 candidates to take pledge to restore robust protections at least as strong as the 2015 Open Internet Order either through legislation or through FCC action, and oppose any attempts to pass weak legislation. Comcast, AT&T and Verizon donate heavily to elect officlials who will let them decide who wins and loses on the internet and to keep them free of any meaningful oversight, including when they throttle the internet connections of firefighters battling wildfires.
That will only happens if we let those companies win by staying silent. We’ve beat them before to win the historic 2015 protections when everyone in D.C. thought it was impossible. But we need your help to elect candidates that will fight to restore comprehensive net neutrality protections. That’s the only way we can protect an open and free internet and prevent companies like Comcast, AT&T and Verizon from interfering with what we do online.
