Waxman Still Mulling FCC's Open Internet Order

House Commerce Committee Chairman Henry Waxman (D-CA) said that while he is supportive of the Federal Communications Commission's efforts to protect the open Internet, he needs to take a closer look at the commission's proposed net neutrality order before he signs off on it.

"You would think that making sure the Internet isn't censored in any way would be an idea that's popular among Democrats and Republicans," Chairman Waxman said. So far reaction on Capitol Hill shows lawmakers splitting down party lines with Democrats supporting the FCC's proposal and Republicans opposing it.
