Protest For Net Neutrality At Obama Fundraiser

Obama in the Backseat: The Rally to Save the Internet

On the campaign trail in 2007, candidate Obama visited Google headquarters in Silicon Valley and pledged to “take a back seat to no one” in his commitment to Net Neutrality. 

Since then he has appointed two FCC chairmen — Julius Genachowski and Tom Wheeler — who have failed to live up to the president’s pledge.

On July 23, Obama will return to California for a big fundraiser and we want to remind him how much we all care about the open Internet. That’s why we’re holding a big rally in L.A. to get the message out.

WHERE: We’ll rally in the park at the Memorial Branch of the Los Angeles Public Library, 4625 W. Olympic Blvd, Los Angeles CA 90019 (Olympic and S Mullen Ave.)

PARKING: On street parking is available on Olympic. Los Angeles High School is across the street and spaces are available until 6:30 p.m.

Help us grab the president’s attention — RSVP today!

Wear orange and bring a big, bold sign to show your support for the open Internet. Arrive early to try and avoid street closures.

OF NOTE: We expect secret service street closures across the city and in the Hancock Park neighborhood. Please allow ample travel time and plan to arrive early. If for any reason we are moved on the day of the rally we will email you and alert you to our new location.
