Chairman Pai recently released this proposed regulation and announced that it would be voted on at the FCC’s December 14 meeting. “President Trump’s FCC plan to repeal Net Neutrality would harm free speech, stall entrepreneurship, and deal a major blow to our economic competitiveness and all American consumers,” said Rep. Quigley. “Equal access to all online content is a cornerstone of the Internet, and I strongly oppose Chairman Pai’s efforts to weaken protections. The FCC’s proposed plan would reduce competition, stifle innovation, and charge customers more for less; and the vote must not move forward.” December 13, 2017 The Honorable Ajit V. Pai Chairman Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street S.W. Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear Chairman Pai: We write to you today regarding the “Restoring Internet Freedom” item, WC Docket No. 17-108, on the Federal Communication Commission’s December Open Meeting Agenda. We urge you to delay consideration of this item and remove it from the December agenda. Thank you for your attention to this important request. Sincerely, ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
