Passing Repeal

By Brad

Yesterday, the House Energy and Commerce Communications and Technology Subcommittee voted to repeal the FCC’s net neutrality regulations 15-8. The vote was along party lines.

What’s next? According to The Hill’s Sara Jerome, the Senate isn’t likely to touch the subject of repeal until sometime this summer. But if repealing the regs makes out of there, it will likely be vetoed by President Obama.
