Wednesday 12/12 Call to Action

Tuesday
Starting with the Senate vote in Alabama today, this is going to be a nail biting few weeks.
1. Net Neutrality
Despite that fact that a large number of the public comments on the FCC site were fake, Ajit Pai still plans to go ahead with the vote to remove Net Neutrality, Thursday, December 14th.
Today, there will be a nationwide protest against the vote. Here’s how you can get involved.
A) Voice your opinion on the FCC comment page
gofccyourself.com
*Click on the “17-108” option which is labeled “Restoring Internet Freedom”,
*Click on “Express” (vs. New Filing) on the left
*Enter name and info and in the comment section add “I strongly support net neutrality backed by Title 2 oversight of ISPs” and then can add other comments too
*Then continue to the review screen and review
*Hit “submit”
B) FCC Commissioners contact information *Note: I have tried multiple times to call but the phone numbers don’t work for me. Try the emails and Twitter handles instead.
*Ajit Pai: 202-518-7399 email: Ajit.Pai@fcc.gov Twitter: @AjitPaiFCC
*Michael O'Rielly: 301-657-9092 email: mike.o’rielly@fcc.gov Twitter @mikeofcc

C) Join multiple prominent websites in an online protest today. Go to https://www.battleforthenet.com/breaktheinternet/ and follow their suggestions or get creative. The goal is to get people to call their members of Congress and raise the public’s awareness that this is happening.
D) Use this tool to write a letter to Congress:https://www.battleforthenet.com/ or Resistbot https://resist.bot/
E) Tell your members of Congress to support HR 4585,To prohibit the Federal Communications Commission from relying on the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in the matter of restoring internet freedom to adopt, amend, revoke, or otherwise modify any rule of the Commission.
