Summary

Open Internet Preservation Act

This bill amends the Communications Act of 1934 by prohibiting broadband internet access service providers from: (1) blocking lawful content, applications, services, or non-harmful devices; and (2) impairing or degrading lawful internet traffic on the basis of internet content, application, or service, or use of a non-harmful device.

These prohibitions do not prevent providers from offering specialized services that are offered over the same network and may share network capacity with the broadband internet access service.
