Congress Disapproves FCC Rule on Open Internet Regulation.

This resolution seeks to stop a specific Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rule from taking effect, which concerned how internet service providers (ISPs) manage traffic and access. If successful, the FCC's May 2024 rule will be voided, maintaining the existing regulatory framework for ISPs. This action prevents potential changes to how citizens experience internet speed and content access.
Key points
Blocks the implementation of a new FCC rule related to internet governance and network neutrality.
Ensures the current regulatory status quo for internet service providers remains in place.
Prevents potential changes to internet speed tiers or content prioritization planned under the disapproved FCC rule.
