I just switched my long distance and international phone service

Big telecom companies like AT&T and Verizon are spending tens of millions of dollars to push a law that would abandon the "First Amendment of the Internet" -- a principle called network neutrality.

As the Internet grows, it's not surprising that the big corporations want to seize control, discriminate against people with alternative viewpoints, favor certain types of content, and set up tollbooths wherever they can.

Without network neutrality, AT&T, Verizon and others will be free to slow down or block emails and Web sites they don't like -- including the Web sites of their critics and of people who don't share their politics.

Today, our free and open Internet allows individuals and organizations to speak truth to power. But if AT&T and Verizon have their way, an Internet provider who objected to the views of Working Assets, MoveOn.org Civic Action, Michael Moore, or Planned Parenthood could slow down our Web sites or even block them altogether.

...Send a message to Big Telecom by switching to Working Assets

In addition to helping you raise your voice to Congress, Working Assets has a unique role to play in the fight to save the Internet. We're the only phone company participating in the Save the Internet coalition. But we also make it easy for you to stick it to AT&T and Verizon and help organize for Internet freedom with one simple act: switch your mobile phone and long distance service from the bad guys to Working Assets.

The best way to make AT&T and Verizon pay the price for this attack on our Internet is move your dollars to another company. So far, they say recent scandals aren't causing them to lose customers. If you're currently with AT&T, Cingular (AT&T's wireless arm) or Verizon, we can help you send them a message and raise money for the fight to save the Internet.
