California has been trying to implement its own set of net neutrality rules similar to the ones that the FCC recently repealed, but lawmakers have not been able to agree on some key provisions. That changed this week, with state legislators announcing a deal on what they say is a "strong and enforceable" proposal.

It's been a turbulent road to this point. State Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) introduced the bill (SB 822) in January in hopes of restoring net neutrality regulation on the state level. The bill was passed by the Senate, but was later gutted by the State Assembly's Communications Committee, led by Assemblyman Miguel Santiago (D-Los Angeles). Santiago was criticized by net neutrality advocates, some of which accused him of selling out to ISPs, citing his contributions from AT&T. Wiener ended up withdrawing support of his own bill after the changes, calling it "toothless" legislation.
