Sign the petition to stop cable and internet company consolidation

 

Tell the FCC: Block the Charter-Cox megamerger

Sign the Petition



A $34.5 billion disaster is barreling toward our cable and internet access, and we have to stop it.

Charter Communications and Cox want to merge into a mega-corporation that would dominate the cable and broadband market. If the FCC approves this deal, millions of us will likely face higher prices, worse service, and fewer choices.

This merger would slash competition and hand even more control to massive corporations. Fewer providers mean higher bills and slower speeds for families who rely on the internet every day.

And it gets worse: Charter is reportedly using MAGA-style rhetoric to win favor with the Trump administration. They're politicizing broadband access to push their agenda. That should outrage anyone who believes in a fair, independent media regulation.

Now is the time to fight back. We must put pressure on the FCC to block the Charter-Cox megamerger, before it's too late. Add your name to our petition and we'll deliver your signature directly to the Federal Communications Commission.

Workers stand to lose big if this deal goes through. History shows that mega-mergers lead to layoffs, wage cuts, and weaker labor rights. Broadband workers keep America connected. They deserve security, not corporate greed.

The FCC has the power to stop this. Under federal law, it must reject any deal that doesn’t serve the public interest. This merger fails that test in every way.

We can stop this—but only if we act fast. The deal is moving quickly and could close within weeks. Every signature sends a clear message: No more monopolies. No more backroom deals. We want an internet that works for everyone.

Tell the FCC: Block the Charter-Cox merger. Click here to add your name to the petition.

Thanks for everything you do.
