CA Defies FCC in Passing Its Own Net Neutrality

This power grab by California Democrats is sure to be overturned by a DOJ lawsuit.

Trump Derangement Syndrome is alive and active in that left of leftist states, California. On Monday, Democrat Gov. Jerry Brown signed a law that imposes net neutrality upon the Internet. In California. This move came about in direct response to the decision by President Donald Trump’s Federal Communications Commission late last year to end Barack Obama’s net-neutrality power-grab.

Almost immediately after Brown signed the bill into law, the Justice Department announced that it was suing the state of California to block the law. And it’s quite obvious to all that the DOJ should easily win the case, as California’s law is a clear breach of federal jurisdiction and authority to regulate interstate commerce. The Internet does not stop at California’s borders.

As Hot Air’s Ed Morrissey notes, “Put simply, the California legislature and Jerry Brown are busy engaging in stunt lawmaking. This is designed to curry favor with progressives frustrated over having lost an election and getting handed a setback on net neutrality, and nothing more. It serves as a distraction from the fiscal crises and economic woes besetting the Golden State, as well as the lack of progress on other progressive projects such as socialized medicine and the high-speed rail project.”
