For the first time, the Republican Party has included Internet freedom in its official platform.
And it looks like the Democratic Party will do the same — President Obama just recently stated his support for Internet freedom in a Q&A on reddit.

On July, 1 more than 1,200 people from all across the U.S. made a trip to their local congressional offices to deliver a message: Don’t mess with the Internet.
They were responding to a sneak attack on Net Neutrality buried deep inside a 158-page funding bill. That bill has to pass in some form just to keep the government running, so it’s urgent that Congress scrap this language from the bill.
