Dear Chair McMorris Rodgers and Ranking Member Pallone:
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce strongly supports H.J.Res. 153, a resolution of disapproval under the Congressional Review Act to nullify the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) Safeguarding and Securing the Open Internet Order (Title II Order).
The Title II Order is not authorized by Congress and will harm consumers, particularly those in rural and economically disadvantaged areas, by hindering the investment needed for broadband deployment. These flaws will also put the American economy at a competitive disadvantage.
The 2026 State of American Business
Discover what U.S. Chamber President and CEO Suzanne Clark and leading business leaders are saying about the state of the economy and the top issues shaping the domestic and global business landscape in 2026 and beyond.
Beyond H.J.Res. 153, Congress should enact legislation codifying key net neutrality principles, without imposing a Title II-like legal regime on broadband, to help address the growing patchwork of state net neutrality laws and to pursue comprehensive permitting reforms to accelerate broadband deployment.
The Chamber strongly supports H.J. Res. 153.
Sincerely,
Tom Quaadman
Executive Vice President
