Democrats are just one vote shy of restoring net neutrality

thoughtremixer:

I haven’t done an update on Net Neutrality in a while as I was trying to find a reasonable “next step”, especially since it’s been out of the “news cycle” for a bit. Well, I have some good news. 

According to the senator (minority leader Chuck Schumer) from New York, they now have a total of 50 votes for a Senate resolution of disapproval that would restore the Open Internet Order of 2015 and deliver a stiff rebuke to Ajit Pai and other Republican members of the FCC. It would also prevent the agency from passing a similar measure in the future, all but guaranteeing Net Neutrality is permanently preserved

What’s stopping them now? They need just ONE more Republican and they have less than 30 days to do it.

So goes the next actionable step. You have to contact your senators and get them to suppose the Congressional Review of “the Open Internet Order of 2015″. 

There are two ways to go about it. 

1) Via 5calls.org using this script – https://5calls.org/issue/fcc-net-neutrality-cra

2) Via https://resist.bot/ – you can write to Congress using this site or  Text RESIST to Resistbot on Telegram, Messenger, or to 50409 on SMS. By providing basic information, you can write your Senator to move forward.

Now, if you got a Democratic Senator, push them on to find that one Republican Senator. If you got a Republican Senator, encourage them to reconsider their stance on Net Neutrality. 

We just need ONE Republican Senator and we have less than 30 days to do so. 

A LOT less than thirty days now, but still – go!

replied to your post “my name is lucas i am a spider i want to sing you a wonderful song and…”

But spiders aren’t freeloaders, they eat all that nasty shit like ants and centipedes and fuckin uhhhhhh earwigs.

((Mun really likes spiders. However, Mun’s coworkers do not. When I see a spider, I take it outside for its safety because my coworkers will kill it even if I’m there to deal with it. That’s what it’s like working with mostly women I guess… >w>;;;

Theres two national walk-out days schedualed in protests on gun violence!!!!! Here are the dates:

March 14th & Apirl 20th (the same day that the columbine shooting took place, not because its 4.20)

The one on April 20th, people won’t come back to school until congress changes the gun control laws!!!!!

On March 14th the walkout starts at 10 am, where everyone will walkout of the class rooms and into the streets for 17 minutes at the very least !!!!!! The organization suggests wearing orange to show solidarity.

As far as I can tell, there is no scheduled walkout time planned for April 20th so far, but I will keep you informed !!!

The 17 minutes of a walkout is to honor the 17 people who died in the Parkland Shooting
