Stand Up for the Open Internet

http://free.convio.net/site/R?i=DewLc7ksQ790Xn0EU5y3Dg..

Dear Elyssa,

Comcast, AT&T and Verizon have deployed hundreds of lobbyists in a
final push to kill the open Internet.

Their goal: Take control of Internet content away from Internet users.
Their tactic:Tell
outrageous lies about Net Neutrality - the only thing stopping
them from
interfering with your online
experience.

You now have four days left to convince the FCC that these companies
are wrong:

Debunk Their Junk.
Demand Net Neutrality.

Free Press and our allies in the SavetheInternet.com Coalition are
gathering hundreds of thousands of signatures to show the FCC that
Internet users -- and not corporations -- should control the Internet.

In the last year alone, phone and cable companies have spent more than
$90 million to hire nearly 500 D.C. lobbyists in a last-minute push
for power over what we do, where we go and with whom we connect
online.

Their lobbyists are now flooding the FCC with lies that portray Net
Neutrality as a threat to the free-flowing Internet.

Nothing could be further from the truth. We need to speak out now to
keep the Internet open.The
FCC must
craft
new Net Neutrality rules that
protect
our Internet freedom. Our best chance to be heard by the agency ends
Thursday, April 8, when
the agency's docket for public comments closes.

Tell the FCC: Net Neutrality Protects the Open Internet

http://free.convio.net/site/R?i=aN3iYXymh39wXHCvwH5QyQ..

Set the record straight: Tell the FCC that Net Neutrality is essential
to keeping the future of communications open and available to all
Americans.

It's critical that the FCC hears from you before the April 8
deadline. Please tell the FCC to protect Net Neutrality once and for
all.
