AT&T Statement on D.C. Circuit Court Net Neutrality Decision

Attribute the following statement to AT&T Senior Executive Vice President and General Counsel David R. McAtee II:

 “Today, the D.C. Circuit upheld the FCC’s 2017 decision to pursue a market-based, ‘light-touch’ policy for governing the internet — an approach that relies on Title I of the Act as opposed to the utility-style regulation under Title II. The decision is a victory for U.S. broadband investment and broadband consumers everywhere. Despite dire predictions to the contrary by some when the Order was adopted, network investment has continued to grow and the open internet has continued to thrive. We look forward to addressing the narrow issues remanded for further consideration.”
