Faso votes with Dems, but internet privacy protections lose in House

Mar 29, 2017 6:00 am
Rep. John Faso (R-Kinderhook) was one of 15 Republicans voting with Democrats March 28 on SJ Res 34, a bill that gives internet service providers access to internet browsing histories. Republicans passed the bill that rolls back previous privacy rules by a vote of 215-205. The Senate voted last week 50-48 along party lines in favor of the measure. The bill prohibits the Federal Communications Commission from addressing the issue again, and President Donald Trump is expected to sign the bill. Previously, ISPs would need permission before collecting data on a user's online activity.
