Urge your Senators to restore net neutrality protections

 

The Senate is poised to vote very soon on a Congressional Review Act (CRA) Resolution that would restore net neutrality protections  the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) voted to eliminate earlier this year. Without net neutrality, telecommunications providers are free to establish fast lanes for particular online products, throttle delivery of others, and potentially raise prices and decrease services for students and educators nationwide. Right after the FCC voted to eliminate net neutrality, Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) introduced a CRA that would repeal the FCC’s order and reinstate net neutrality.

Reports indicate that we are only one vote away from the CRA Resolution receiving Senate approval. To date, all Senate democrats and Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) have committed to voting for the CRA. It is important that all senators hear from you now about your support for this resolution. Additionally, there’s a group of four senators who may be particularly close to switching from a “no” to a “yes.” These four senators are: Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA), Sen. Dean Heller (R-NV), Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) and Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO). Advocates from those four states – Louisiana, Nevada, Alaska and Colorado – are especially encouraged to contact these members and urge them to vote “yes” on the CRA.

ACTIONS TO TAKE THIS WEEK:

     1. Tweet at your Senators.

Poems. I wrote some poems. I call this little collection "Forth and Back"

One Actor

Indefatigable spirits flag not

In the face of

Obstacle, stale air,

Standardization,

Or achievement,

But nourish caring hearts

Through handcuffed and assassination-rife times.

Racism has many costumes

But only one actor,

The infant, fearful soul.

Go

Peace, she whispers,

And lets go her soul.

Takes forever leave of it.

And it

From her.

Intention

At some urgent last moment

I will know that it is.

If I do not manage a smile

You must remember that

Was my most intended intention.

Stop

You say to stop

Right where I am.

How could I stop

Where I’m not?

Pi

Ease along now

Even as you will

Yourself to stay put.

Just how many

Realities can we be?

Perhaps Pi.

What

Open any door and stand

In what you have made,

An opening framed by…what?

Watch what the door kept hidden,

What it kept from you,

What kept being

Without you.

Beyond this portal

Are more portals

And within each,

More portals,

And with each,

More what.

Break

Open any door.

Find joy or hatred within.

Smile upon discovery.

Break down.

I

Find myself?

How does that

Which is I

Perceive that

Which it is?

I would more

Likely find

That sad I

Seeking I.
