Net Neutrality Hearing and Vote Ahead

SourceMapLight

On Wednesday, the House Communications and Technology Subcommittee is scheduled to hold a hearing to discuss the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) proposed net neutrality regulations.

The panel, which has jurisdiction over the FCC, is expected to hear testimony from several witnesses critical of the agency’s proposed rules. The chairman of the panel, Rep. Greg Walden (R-OR), is working with Rep. Fred Upton (R-MI) and Sen. John Thune (R-SD) on a Republican alternative to the FCC’s proposal, but they have not introduced an actual bill.

On Thursday, the FCC itself is scheduled to vote on the proposed net neutrality rules.
