Pending legislation (House Bill 5252 and Senate Bill2686) will curb local control over video franchises, negatively impact thousands of local PEG Access channels, allow redlining of low-income and rural communities and jeopardize the openness of the Internet.

The National Day of Out(r)age is an opportunity to organize mass political action against this legislation. See www.saveaccess.org for details.
