California state senator to propose statewide net neutrality laws
A California state senator proposed state-wide net neutrality law on Thursday in the wake of the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) decision to repeal net neutrality rules.
“If the FCC won’t stand up for a free and open internet, California will,” State Sen. Scott Wiener (D) wrote in a piece on Medium.
“My legislation will bring net neutrality requirements to California. There are several ways we can bring net neutrality to California,” he said. “California can regulate business practices to require net neutrality, condition state contracts on adhering to net neutrality, and require net neutrality as part of cable franchise agreements, as a condition to using the public right-of-way for internet infrastructure, and in broadband packages.”
