CCAGW: Protect the Internet from Net Neutrality

CAGW* | June 9, 2008

Filed Under Our Government, Unconstitutional Acts

CCAGW expressed its opposition this month to H.R. 5353, the Internet Freedom Preservation Act of 2008, which would add network neutrality principles to the 1934 Telecommunications Act and define broadband policy. H.R. 5353 ignores the fact that consumers have more Internet choices than ever before. Cable, satellite and wireless broadband providers are competing head-to-head for customers and providing a wider array of services at lower prices. “Anytime Congress attempts to ‘protect’ anything, it usually means more regulation, less competition, less consumer choice, and higher costs,” said CCAGW President Tom Schatz. “The market for high-speed Internet services should remain open
to competition without government interference.” Read more about Network Neutrality.
