#BadIntrernetBills are moving forward again in Congress and multiple states, so it’s time to take action. Groups like Fight for the Future, National Youth Rights Association, EFF, Woodhull Foundation, CDT, and the Internet Society have been sounding the alarm, but Congress is now looking at packaging them together—possibly into must-pass legislation. We’re organizing to keep them from sneaking these bad internet bills through.

This community is for news stories, opinion pieces, and action links about these bad internet bills. Please help get the word out!
