After months of nothing further happening on the Net Neutrality front in the US, four lawmakers have signed the Congressional Review Act discharge petition in the last two weeks.  This petition would undo the FCC's Net Neutrality repeal and restore the previous (much stronger) net neutrality regulations.  It's already passed the Senate, and there are almost enough votes in the House to pass it.  The reason it hasn't?  Too many politicians have taken large sums from ISPs.  However as the four who recently caved have shown, enough pressure and even politicians who've taken lots of money for their support of net neutrality repeal can be shamed into doing the right thing.

If you would like to pressure the 16 Democrats favoring ISP money over a free and fair and open internet, here is a tool to call them.

Remember, calls to politicians are most effective coming from their own constituents.  So people from Pennsylvania, North Carolina, California, Texas, New Jersey, Arizona, Illinois, Georgia, and Indiana are especially encouraged to call.
