Rep. Markey To GOP: HANDS OFF THE INTERNET Tube. Duration : 16.37 Mins.
Representative Ed Markey (D-Massachusetts) delivers a fiery speech to journalists gathered at the National Conference For Media Reform in Boston. He says Republicans in Congress are trying to shut down the internet at the same time they are trying to shut down the government. Repealing the Internet protections the FCC has put into place would allow corporations to take us back 20 years with higher rates and less innovation. He says the message from people to Republicans in Congress needs to be simple: HANDS OFF THE INTERNET. Key quote from Representative Markey:
