Dear Friend, TELL ME: What do you think about action taken by the FCC to reverse net neutrality? I am committed to ensuring that content on the internet is prevented from being blocked, that Internet 'fast lanes' are not instituted, that greater transparency is provided to users and that content cannot be 'throttled' or slowed down based on whether the content is affiliated with any particular Internet service provider. During its monthly meeting yesterday, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) voted to repeal the current net neutrality provisions and undo these protections. As a member of the Telecommunications Subcommittee of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, I play a direct role in oversight of the FCC and the issues under its jurisdiction. This is an important issue and I want to know what you think. Feel free to forward this email to your friends and family!

Sincerely, Dave Loebsack Iowa's Second District PS- Don’t forget to take the poll!
