Federal Communication Commission Commissioner Ajit Pai (Credit: AP/Pablo Martinez Monsivais) The Federal Communications Commission’s Republican majority voted on Thursday to kill net neutrality rules, ignoring pleas from Republican lawmakers to delay or cancel the vote. Republican Sen. Susan Collins and Independent Sen. Angus King, both of Maine, joined Rep. Mike Coffman, R-Colo., in calling on the federal agency to “hold hearings on the net neutrality issue” that has “significant implications for our entire economy, and therefore merits the most thorough, deliberate, and thoughtful process that can be provided.” Thx to everyone who has contacted me in regards to #NetNeutrality.
