BREAKING: The U.S. Senate voted to restore #NetNeutrality.

A reversal will still need backing from Congress and President Trump, who supported the FCC’s decision to repeal it.

[(((haroldfeld))) @haroldfeld]

To review, when have there ever been #netneutrality problems?
2007?-2008: Comcast blocks peer-2-peer applications, lies about it for 6 months.

2013-14: four largest ISPs block Netfix by congesting interconnection point. Spill over impacts all applications.

[Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray]

Access to a free and open internet is critical for our students. From early education, through higher education, and workforce training—students need high-speed internet in order to learn and get the skills they need. #NetNeutrality

[Restore Education @restore_edu]

Great session tonight led by @upgradesatx brainstorming ideas on infrastructure, accessibility, & literacy to bridge the digital divide! #digitalequity #digitaldivide #inclusion #access #digitalliteracy

[Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray]

We’re trying to give a voice to the vast majority of Americans who want the internet to remain a place that fosters innovation, economic opportunity, robust consumer choice, and the free flow of knowledge. We’re fighting to protect #NetNeutrality https://t.co/eznvodLeit

[Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray]

As a former preschool teacher, I support #NetNeutrality because it helps the next generation of innovators—our students, especially those in rural and low-income areas.

[Martin Heinrich @SenatorHeinrich]

It’s time to right the Trump Administration’s wrong: Americans need #NetNeutrality, because access to the open internet fosters the creativity and innovation that is at the heart of our economy.

[Ed Markey @SenMarkey]

The final #NetNeutrality vote will be tight. But that doesn’t reflect how Americans feel.

Outside of D.C., #NetNeutrality isn’t a partisan issue at all. And it shouldn’t be! The ONLY beneficiaries of its repeal are huge corporations that are already reaping in enormous profits.

[Free Press @freepress]

In just over an hour, @freepress will be broadcasting live from @RightsCon 2018 in Toronto with #NetNeutrality advocates from around the world. Tune in at 3:30 pm ET! https://t.co/RyLi8Zqohe

[Fight for the Future @fightfortheftr]

.@SenJohnThune's FAKE #NetNeutrality bill circulated today is a cynical attempt to strip @GOP support for the wildly popular CRA to restore REAL net neutrality protections. Thune's "updated" bill has all the problems the original had. More on that here: https://t.co/v09cwwdIHr

[Ed Markey @SenMarkey]

Just like water and electricity, you can’t live without broadband in the 21st century. We should treat it like a utility. The Senate needs to vote to restore #NetNeutrality tomorrow.
