They want to lock down the internet

People protesting in the streets are under attack — and time is running out to stop the FCC from destroying our right to speak out online. Donate $10 to help fight back.

Friend,

Trump is threatened big time by the millions of us who are resisting his administration’s authoritarian policies. It’s no secret that his team has been attacking free speech, press freedom and peaceful protests to try to silence us. But did you know that since Election Day, 20 states have proposed bills to crack down on protests — and 30 separate anti-protest bills have been introduced?1

With threats to activism accelerating across the country, safeguarding Net Neutrality is more essential than ever. We’re facing the fight of our lives to save it and need all the support we can get to win.

Could you chip in $10 to help save Net Neutrality — and everyone’s right to dissent —before it’s too late?

Even if the anti-protest bills never become law, they’ll deter people from engaging in activism — that’s the point. And if they do pass, you can bet that protests involving people of color, Muslims, undocumented immigrants and other communities under siege will be targeted hardest.

That’s not how democracy is supposed to work. We refuse to be silenced but we need you with us every step of the way to fight back and win.

FCC Chairman Ajit Pai’s plan to kill Net Neutrality is moving forward fast. This is a fight we can’t afford to lose — your gift of $10 today will offer crucial support.

Thanks for all you do—

P.S. The future of the internet and free speech are at stake. Donate $10 to the fight to save Net Neutrality. Thank you.
