Contribute to save net neutrality

From Free Press Action Fund:

Q: What will it take to save the Internet from FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler’s plan to allow rampant discrimination online?

A: People. Only we can remind Chairman Wheeler that he works for the public. Only we can hold him accountable.

On May 15th, the FCC will formally unveil its terrible rules. The outcry over the last couple of weeks has prompted Wheeler to make a few tweaks to his proposal, but those changes don’t go far enough. It will take even more noise for Wheeler to ditch his plan altogether.

That’s why, on May 15th, we’re rallying outside the FCC and taking action online. We need your contribution to make the protest big, loud and forceful enough for Wheeler to scrap these rules.

It’s a perfect time to give: If we raise $50,000 by the end of the day on Thursday, a generous donor will match it.

Donate today and your gift will go twice as far to save the Internet.

Millions of people have spoken out. The phones are ringing off the hook at the FCC and in Congress. And Wheeler’s getting pressure from organizations, companies, tech investors — and even two of his fellow FCC commissioners — to abandon his proposal.

This outpouring of support has left us more inspired than ever to do what it takes to save the Internet.

But we need your help to win this fight.

Donate right away and help fuel the campaign for real Net Neutrality.

We’ve got less than three days to go. Can we count on you?

With thanks,

Candace, Carrie and the rest of the Free Press Action Fund team

P.S. We’re aiming to raise $50,000 by May 15th to power our work to save the Internet. A generous donor will match all funds raised if we meet our goal. Please donate today. Thank you!
