An open internet is essential to maintaining our democracy, growing our economy, protecting consumers, and preserving critical health, safety, and energy services. Late last year, when the FCC made the disastrous decision to repeal net neutrality, I announced I would pursue legislation to protect net neutrality in California. In January, I introduced a summary version of Senate Bill 822, and over the last two months, I’ve been working with civil rights and privacy advocates, public policy experts and lawyers, former state and federal commissioners, and business leaders to craft the strongest and most comprehensive set of net neutrality protections in the country.

Today, we are announcing new, detailed amendments that make SB 822 the strongest and most comprehensive net neutrality proposal in the country. You can read the legislation here and a detailed description of the amendments here. SB 822 establishes comprehensive and enforceable net neutrality standards that will put California at the forefront of our national efforts to protect the internet. SB 822 applies its net neutrality standards to any ISP that serves a customer in California.
