“2017 has been a year of bitter partisanship, but it's nice to see that with some issues, the dominant parties of the U.S. can put aside their differences in order to oppose something that's plainly harmful — and more importantly, deeply unpopular. That's increasingly the case with net neutrality: a handful of Republican Representatives have joined their voices to those asking the FCC to delay the vote that would eliminate net neutrality, or for legislation that establishes the principle permanently.
This statement is not problems — most importantly, the idea that Congress hasn't had the opportunity to hold hearings and pass legislation over the last few years. People have been making a ruckus for a long time but elected officials have more or less ignored them, or actively worked against them, as with the ill-advised repeal of the broadband privacy rules earlier this year.
At least Rep. Coffman, for one, can proudly say he was not among those who voted for that unpopular action; he was among 15 Republican Nays, and I thank him for his willingness to cross party lines in this matter.”
