FCC Vote

We have been monitoring the upcoming vote on the free, family friendly broadband service that the FCC was going to vote on December 18th.

The vote has been canceled.

There has been some opposition from the Bush Administration, senators, representatives and wireless providers (for obvious reasons).

The AZ Family Council wrote a letter cosigned by several local and national organizations to the FCC to support the passing of the free, family friendly Internet. FCC Chair, Kevin Martin (pictured above) has been an advocate for a family friendly Internet. And for that we sincerely thank him for trying to protect us for the harmful effects of Internet pornography. His position will end when Obama takes office.

We will continue to monitor this and keep you informed. Thanks to all those who wrote in to support this measure.
