Senators Force A Vote That May Ultimately Reverse FCC, Restore Net Neutrality

LOADING ERROR LOADING Prodded by Democrats, the Senate is set late next week to vote on what could be the first step toward restoring net neutrality rules. A petition filed by Senate Democrats on Wednesday will force the net neutrality vote in the chamber, where it has a good chance of passing, perhaps as narrowly as 50-49. And if it passes the House, the legislation would still need Trump’s signature ― no sure thing, given that he put Pai in the position to lead the push overturning the Obama-era net neutrality rules. “Net Neutrality is overwhelmingly supported by people across the political spectrum: Republicans, Democrats, and independents alike,” Craig Aaron, head of the pro net-neutrality advocacy group Free Press Action Fund, said in an emailed statement.
