Where do your Senators stand on "Net Neutrality"?
"Net neutrality" means that companies like AT&T shouldn't be allowed to slow down a website because it offers a competing service such as internet-phone-calls.

Where do your Senators stand on this issue?

2. Thanks for that Eric.
I just sent off an e-mail to my Senator - Barbara Mikulski - who's undecided.

3. I have no Senators. I am Senatorless.
But hey - at least Cornyn is at the moment undeclared on his stance. Might I hope? Nah. x(

4. In our case, "undeclared" means "waiting for a higher bid."

5. One for, one no reply
Clinton sent a very clear and definite affirmation of support for net neutrality in response to an e-mail message. Schumer's office never responded. I don't assume anything from that, though.

10. Please phone John Cornyn's office..
...and tell a staffer that he should support "Net Neutrality" to protect websites from discrimination.

11. One for Net Neutrality, one undecided
Edited on Tue Jul-11-06 09:36 PM by TayTay
Kerry is for it and promised to fight with Sen. Wyden on it. Sen. Kennedy is officially undecided, but I'll eat several hats with duck sauce if he came out agin it. (C'mon, it's Teddy.)

13. In CT:
Dodd supports net neutrality.
Lieberman is waffling. (This is shocking! :sarcasm: )

14. But David Brooks wrote Lieberman is...
..."the most kind-hearted and well-intentioned of men."

So who why should we care about Lieberman's actual positions?
