Sign the Petition -- Don't Let Congress Ruin the Internet

Right now Congress is pushing a law that would abandon the First Amendment of the Internet -- a principle called "network neutrality" that preserves the free and open Internet. Congress needs to hear from you today or they will hand over control of what you do online to companies like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast.

Politicians are trading favors for campaign donations from these companies. They're being wooed by people like AT&T's CEO, who says "the Internet can't be free." Sign this petition to tell your elected representatives to protect Internet freedom now. When you fill out the information and push submit, we will automatically send it to your Members of Congress.

This is a serious threat to small business. I strongly encourage EVERYONE to make some noise about this before we find ourselves locked out of the high speed access. Here's the body of the message I just sent to Oklahoma's elected officials.

"Small business is the backbone of new jobs and economic growth for America. The move to remove net neutrality will deny us the basic tools we need to compete on a level playing field in the world economy. Reserving the high speed Internet for the top 1% of businesses will destroy many of the small businesses that have created the growth we now enjoy."

If you don't argue for it here, please make your voice heard somewhere.

Do you have an actual question? Your freedom of speech does not extend to violating the guidelines of this site.
