Democratic FCC Commissioners Ask Wheeler to Slow Down Net Neutrality Proposal
(Ad Week): http://www.adweek.com/news/technology/democratic-fcc-commissioners-ask-wheeler-slow-down-net-neutrality-proposal-157536
Federal Communications Commission chairman Tom Wheeler may have just
hit a snag in rushing his net neutrality proposal into the procedure
pipeline at the May 15 meeting. On Wednesday, both Democratic
commissioners Jessica Rosenworcel and Mignon Clyburn pushed back on
Wheeler's net neutrality proposal. They represent critical votes that
Wheeler needs in order to move the proposal forward. Both are being
bombarded by consumers that are worried Wheeler's proposal doesn't go
far enough in preserving an open Internet. In a blog post, Clyburn
noted that "over 100,000 Americans have spoken" via email, calls and
letters. Rosenworcel, citing the outcry, said she thought the
commission should delay consideration of the rules by at least a
month.
