[Helpdesk] Fwd: Message from Don't Mess With the Net!

[Brett, Computer Medics]

Heather Wilson is on the House Energy and Commerce Committee and  
voted in favor of the Markey Amendment. This is the only Internet  
regulatory bill under consideration that has any teeth to enforce the  
unlimited access provision.

The implications of the Markey Amendment not passing in favor of  
another is the increased cost for non-commercial websites and the  
ability for internet providers to censor content they do not agree  
with. These could be health related or information related, similar  
to Walmart pharmacists being able to make a moral decision about  
dispensing drugs.

The giant telephone and cable companies are trying to take control of  
the Internet away from the public.

They're asking Congress to give them the power to tell you where you  
can go on the Internet-and what you can do.

Please, join me in standing up for the Internet as we know it. Click  
here to learn more and to tell Congress "Don't Mess with the Net":

Together, we can ensure that the Internet remains free and open.
