Rand Paul asks, "Do you want the Internet slowed by red tape?"
Jim Babka President DownsizeDC.
It’s not too late to stop Net Neutrality. Use our system. Tell Congress to pass S.J.Res.14 & HR 1212. Re-tweet this.
If you oppose what Rand Paul calls the "red tape" of Net Neutrality rules, then please...
Tell Congress through DownsizeDC.org's "Don't let bureaucrats control the Internet" campaign.
You may borrow from or copy this letter...
The FCC will impose "Net Neutrality" rules in June, claiming that all Internet data should be treated equally.
But their rules create red tape that will...
* drive small broadband providers out of business
* hamper innovation by discouraging broadband investment
And…
Net Neutrality will NOT bring fairness or equality!
Instead...
It will prevent Internet Service Providers from having the option to charge more to Netflix, Youtube, and other high-bandwidth content providers. This could create traffic congestion and slower connections.
This isn't "neutrality," this is Corporate Welfare!
And I DO NOT CONSENT!
You should pass Sen. Rand Paul's resolution (S.J.Res.14) expressing Congressional disapproval of the FCC's broadband Internet access regulations.
Also, pass Rep. Marsha Blackburn's Internet Freedom Act (HR 1212). It would...
* Nullify these rules
* Prohibit the FCC from imposing similar rules in the future
Pass these bills!
