US Net Neutrality: Ends June 11th?
The US Senate today voted to reverse the Federal Communications Commission's repeal of net neutrality rules, with all members of the Democratic caucus and three Republicans voting in favor of net neutrality.
The Senate approved a Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolution that would simply undo the FCC's December 2017 vote to deregulate the broadband industry. If the CRA is approved by the House and signed by President Trump, Internet service providers would have to continue following rules that prohibit blocking, throttling, and paid prioritization.

Net neutrality gets a thumbs-up from US senators, but it still looks doomed
Scheduled to disappear on June 11
SENATE VOTES TO SAVE NET NEUTRALITY, BUT HURDLES REMAIN
In 2015, the FCC passed sweeping regulations that banned broadband providers such as Comcast and Verizon from blocking, throttling, or otherwise discriminating against lawful internet content. Last December, the FCC voted to toss out those rules.
The proposal passed narrowly in the Senate, where activists only needed to win over two Republicans. In the House, they'll have to woo more than 20 Republicans, even with unanimous Democratic support.
