The Florida IndependentSen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., said Wednesday he supports a Senate resolution to repeal the Federal Communications Commission’s net neutrality rules, which could be voted on today.
The resolution would repeal the net neutrality rules issued last year that go into effect this month. Net neutrality is the idea that consumers should have access to all Internet content and services, and not by limited by Internet service providers “that want to treat them differently so they can charge you more depending on what you use.”

Matt Wood — policy director for Free Press, which manages the Save the Internet campaign — tells The Florida Independent that if the Senate resolution becomes law, the FCC “would not be able to adopt regulations on that issue again without further authorizations by Congress; if it does pass into law it would take away even more of the FCC’s power to oversee broadband and protect consumers online.”
Wood adds that repeal of FCC rules “would allow (Internet service providers) to block consumers from websites, from lawful content of your choice, block and charge you more to access certain sites, speed up certain sites or slow others down.”

According to this article, Open Secrets documents more than $298,000 in campaign contributions to Marco Rubio over the past five years from communications, electronics and Internet companies.
And, lo and behold, here is Marco Rubio, piping up for the clampdown on the free flow of Internet information.
This guy really is a
laughingstock. A humble person would be ashamed of being
caught lying repeatedly about his background in order to win a U. S. Senate seat.
Humility is not Marco Rubio's strong suit.

And that doesn't address the
tricks he pulled for years in the Florida Legislature.
Maybe the
upcoming Greer trial will flush out more of
Mr. Rubio's secrets.
