Days Before Net Neutrality Vote, Mayors Join the Fight
Governing | December 08, 2017
One week before the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is scheduled to vote on repealing net neutrality regulations, nearly 60 U.S. mayors signed a letter in opposition. The repeal proposal, they argue, would lead to greater digital inequality, harm small-business growth and violate principles of local control. It includes a provision blocking state and local governments from enacting their own rules on net neutrality.
