In their letter, the senators claim the growth of the internet continues to be “a great American success story”, and that “broadband investment has increased, deployment has increased, speeds have increased, and high-speed internet access has become more affordable than ever,” while internet providers have been free from the FCC’s authority to regulate them.
The senators argue that reclassifying internet providers in the US as Title II common carriers, giving the FCC authority once again to regulate them would “threaten the progress the country has made” and “steer our country out of the fast lane and into a world of less competition, less choice, less investment, slower speeds and higher prices.”
