U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin Statement on Net Neutrality
"Net neutrality is a principle that is at the heart of an accessible and free internet..."
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin today released the following statement on the FCC’s plan to repeal Net Neutrality rules:
“Rolling back net neutrality rules will allow internet service providers to create an uneven playing field in the online marketplace for services and ideas. We must work to ensure that the internet does not become a two-tiered system, with fast lanes for some and slow lanes for others. Net neutrality is a principle that is at the heart of an accessible and free internet, and I believe we need to protect innovators, entrepreneurs and consumers and keep the internet open for everyone.”
