My Home About Me

The Michigan legislature passed a "cable franchise" bill to level the competitive playing field in providing video services to homes. The result: an immediate $620 million investment in fiber-to-the-home by AT&T in 1,100 Michigan towns, creating 2,000 new jobs in the state. Liberal Democrats tried to thwart the bill by weighing it down with burdensome regulations under the banner of so-called "net neutrality" -- promoted by big Internet content providers as a way of hobbling competition. But those efforts were thankfully defeated -- prompting a personal apology from Michigan's governor Jennifer Granholm to Google's lobbyist.
