January 14 is the one year anniversary of the Verizon court decision that ended net neutrality. The judge stated that the only way to protect net neutrality was to reclassify the Internet as a common carrier under Title II of the telecommunications act.
Now that the Federal Communications Commission has come out in favor of Title II, the giant telecoms like Verizon, Comcast and AT&T are doing everything they can in Congress to stop the FCC.
Time to make the telecoms, already some of the most hated corporations, into political poison.
Rally at the telecom industry trade association at 25 Massachusetts Ave., NW Washington, DC on Wednesday, January 14, 2015 at 12 noon.
It’s a block from Union Station which is on the metro red line. We’ll be wearing hazmat suits. Bring signs or use ours calling out the telecoms for going against democracy, for corrupting politicians and for destroying Internet freedom.

Take the pledge below so you will be kept up to date on actions:
If you aren’t in DC, you can do actions outside your local telecom. Send the information to info@popularresistance.org and we’ll post it.
We have come a long way and we can win net neutrality. Don’t let the telecoms stop us!
