WASHINGTON, June 6 (Reuters) -
The U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals will hear a series of
industry legal challenges seeking to block the Biden
administration's reinstatement of landmark net neutrality rules
set to take effect on July 22, according to an order Thursday.
The Federal Communications Commission voted in April along
party lines to reassume regulatory oversight of broadband
internet and reinstate open internet rules adopted in 2015 that
were rescinded under former President Donald Trump and
challenges were filed in seven circuit courts. FCC Chair Jessica
Rosenworcel said she was confident. "I have full confidence in
what this agency has developed with respect to net neutrality,
and I believe our work will be upheld by the courts," she said
Thursday.
