I would like to give a shout out to Gov. Steve Bullock of Montana, who was the first gov. to use state power to require net neutrality in his state. He expressed specific concerns for schools and libraries J. Two days later Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York followed suit. A window is opening to continue the fight. A constitutional argument may be possible to invoke. According to the 10th Amendment, states are granted specific rights to make decisions concerning education. The Federal Government can only invoke the 6th Amendment authorizing superseding power in constitutionally based situations. Does the FCC decision stand on constitutional authority? If all states created such rules, net neutrality may be neutralized. A call to arms! Librarians, send thanks and/or letters encouraging other Governors to follow the lead.
