Our senators need to know that an overwhelming majority of Americans want an
open Internet. We don’t want corporations blocking what we say or do online. We
want every website, from biggies like Amazon and Google to sites operated by
millions of small businesses and bloggers, to be treated the same, with no fast
lanes for companies with deep pockets!
