Save municipal Net access!

Dear BAY TIMES,

Once again, corporations are trying to monopolize and
enslave the Internet.

A new bill in Congress (HR 2726) could take away
low-cost, high-speed Internet access in every city
across the country.

The “Preserving Innovation in Telecom Act” would let
cable and telecom companies shut down competing
municipal projects which would offer universal,
affordable access to broadband services.

We need to tell Congress to oppose this bill.
I have sent an e-letter to my representative.

Please go to

and send a letter to yours.
It only takes a few minutes.

We must send a clear message to Congress that local communities
— not the giant telephone and cable companies —
should determine local communications needs.


For freedom until death!
