Confirm Gigi Sohn to the FCC now! Stand with consumers, not Big Telecom!

I’m writing as your constituent to ask you to vote to confirm Gigi Sohn for FCC Commissioner now, without any further delay. We need an FCC Commissioner who knows the issues, but isn't a formertelecom lawyer. We need an FCC Commissioner who knows how the FCC works, but isn’t a formerlobbyist for the telecoms. We need an *independent* FCC Commissioner, who isn’t hoping for a telecomjob when her term is over. And that’s why we need the Senate to confirm Gigi Sohn, who is smart, qualified, independent, and compassionate. The same giant telecoms that created the digital divide and deprivedmillions of Americans of fiberoptic broadband are now lining up to opposeSohn's nomination. The last thing they want is an independent commissionerwho won't do their bidding, and who will call out the corruption andself-dealing that has left the country far behind in our communicationsinfrastructure. As your constituent, I demand that you ignore them. Fight for us! Confirm Gigi Sohn now! Thanks.
