WASHINGTON, Nov. 5, 2024 – Policy analysts at the Free State Foundation are warning that if Vice President Kamala Harris (D) is elected president on Tuesday, she would increase regulatory requirements on broadband Internet Service Providers.

In a Monday opinion, FSF President Randolph May, along with Senior Fellow and Director of Policy Studies Seth Cooper, said that a Harris presidency could lead to increased regulatory action by the Federal Communications Commission.

"If Vice President Kamala Harris wins the election, it’s almost certain she and her administration’s officials will continue the misguided quest to rate regulate ISPs," the analysts said.
