The Communications Workers of America expressed support for efforts by the Federal Communications Commission to protect an open Internet that are consistent with the need to promote investment in the nation's high-speed networks and create jobs.

The nation's top Telco claims it is willing to meet the Federal Communications Commission halfway on net neutrality. The olive branch comes in the form of a letter that AT&T sent to the FCC, which suggests specific wording for Internet non-discrimination rules. In September the agency released a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking that would toughen up its Internet Policy Statement with an enforcement mechanism and transparency requirements.
