Legislation to Prevent UN Internet Regulation

Statement

This week I introduced bipartisan legislation as a preemptive strike to keep the United Nations from regulating the Internet. H. Con. Res. 114 urges the United States Permanent Representative to the UN to oppose any resolution that would allow regulation. China and Russia are leading efforts before the UN to seek a resolution, under which the UN would give license to authoritarian governments to continue censoring the Internet and perpetuate their assault on individual liberties. No single state should have control over content, and information must be freely disseminated. The House Cybersecurity Caucus, which I founded and co-chair, is dedicated to developing policies to ensure this.
