The Center for Individual Freedom this week joined several other conservative and free-market organizations on a new ad campaign renewing our demands that Congress resist calls to regulate the Internet.

Specifically, the ad, which is sponsored by Institute for Liberty and which ran this week in the Washington Times, responds to big government, pro-regulation groups like MoveOn.org that have amplified their calls for "network neutrality" legislation. 

"Conservatives Agree: 'Net Neutrality' is Bad for the Internet, Stifles Innovation -- and Hurts Consumers," the ad reads.  It is also the "first step toward taxing the Internet," the ad continues. 

Other conservative and free-market groups signing onto the ad include the American Conservative Union, Competitive Enterprise Institute, Heritage Foundation, Americans for Tax Reform, National Taxpayers Union and many more.
