A year ago today, the FCC voted to end #NetNeutrality.

Since then, @Verizon throttled emergency responders' data during a wildfire, the DoJ sued California for enacting its own rules, and now, the FCC has made the same mistake for text messaging that it did for #NetNeutrality.
But as we said we would—we're fighting back.

The Senate voted to reverse the FCC, and now we're waiting on the House to do the same. Time is short, but support is growing. act.eff.org/action/tell-co…
30 legislatures have introduced bills that would require their ISPs to maintain net neutrality as a matter of law. Four of those states have passed laws with strong bipartisan majorities, and more are promising to follow suit in 2019. ncsl.org/research/telec…
Six state governors (Montana, New York, New Jersey, Hawaii, Vermont, and Rhode Island), led by Gov. Steve Bullock of Montana, have issued Executive Orders declaring that the state’s government will not do business with ISPs that violate net neutrality. nytimes.com/2018/01/22/tec…
In suing California, the DoJ insists the FCC has authority to abandon its oversight role but simultaneously prevent states from filling that vacuum, but we disagree—and we look forward to explaining why to a judge. eff.org/deeplinks/2018…
The battle for #NetNeutrality is far from over, and we'll keep fighting to ensure the Internet lives up to its promise: fostering innovation, creativity, and freedom.
