Rep. Pete Sessions from Texas trying to restrict your internet access ? nationally?

Now Senators John McCain and Frank Lautenberg are set to propose the "Community Broadband Act of 2005" as a polar opposite.

The act doesn't advocate municipal broadband, but it does protect a town or city's right to explore the option.
