Ron Wyden today sharply criticized the Federal Communications Commission\u2019s vote to repeal net neutrality and said he will work to restore key rules that successfully prohibited internet service providers from devising fast and slow lanes they could use to block or stunt internet traffic.\r\n\u201cToday\u2019s historically awful FCC action undoing net neutrality unwraps an early Christmas present for Big Cable and unravels essential protections for consumers in Oregon and nationwide,\u201d said Wyden, who introduced the first strong net neutrality bill in 2006. \r\nWyden spoke on the Senate floor this week in favor of preserving successful net neutrality rules, pointed out the importance of broadband access to rural Oregon and defended net neutrality in state and national forums.\r\n\u201cThe fight for a free and open Internet will not end with today\u2019s shortsighted and misguided net neutrality decision by Trump appointees,\u201d he said. \u201cI will fight this decision in the courts and in the Congress.\u201d\r\nAs part of that fight in Congress, Wyden today joined with 15 other senators to announce their plan to introduce a Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolution.\r\nThe resolution would undo today\u2019s FCC net neutrality decision and restore the 2015 net neutrality rules that prohibited internet service providers from setting up internet fast and slow lanes and ensured they could not block or slow down internet traffic.", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.wyden.senate.gov/news/press-releases/wyden-blasts-fccs-repeal-of-net-neutrality"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.676731277257204, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
