Roundup: Executive order on net neutrality?

State Rep. John Ray Clemmons (D-Nashville) and Senate Minority Leader Lee Harris (D-Memphis) have requested that Gov. Bill Haslam issue an executive order ensuring net neutrality protections across the state.

"The Internet is almost a public utility at this point. Everyone deserves equal and open access,” said Harris in a press release. "The recent ruling by the FCC hurts consumers, innovators, and our small businesses. An executive order and our legislation would ensure that Tennessee stays on the path of creative entrepreneurship."
