Letter to Congressman Brad Miller NC-13


Congressman Miller,

Congratulations on your re-election to the 13th District Representative Seat in the United States Congress. It seems as if the Republicans as a group are taking strides in the bill submission category. I prefer the government style recommendations laid out by our first President of the United States of America, George Washington, who warned against a party system saying that it would create a divide in the American population. What we see now is the result of this process. The first two Bills presented in the House have been: “HR 2 : Repeal the Job Killing Health Care Law Act” and “HR 3: No Taxpayer Money for Abortion Act” ; I say kudos to an effort such as this in regards to being transparent in the laws being presented to the House and the fact that the bill details exactly what is contained inside. These bills are short and concise, and should be. The general public should be able to easily read and understand the rules and regulations that directly affect their lives in addition to being informed on how their tax money is spent. The years of passing laws that increase the wealth of a few including foreign nations that are against American Interests is over. I truly hope that you and your office plans on standing up for American values and American Interests. If you need ideas for future regulation reform I have House Resolution for you:

{HR : Internet Service Provider Definition Act

This Act will provide the definition of an Internet Service Provider and will be substituted in all Public Laws, Rules, and Regulations which contain the prior definitions in place before this Act is deemed law. An Internet Service Provider is an organization that grants a connection to the Internet. An Internet Service Provider is bound to the Communications Act of 1934 due to the fact that it provides a signal of light or an electric pulse over a wire. The equipment owned by the Internet Service Provider to provide this service must be configured to allow the maximum bandwidth available without any type of restriction. Even though a Megabyte equals 1024 bits, 1MB = 1MB, and the sale of throughput that is not available at a constant rate for an end user is considered fraud and will be punishable by law. Only by an Act of Congress may the wires of Internet Service Providers be monitored. }

This is simple, straightforward, and to the point. It would also be a stand for the Freedoms found under the First Amendment, in which Speech has turned into a form of Communication that should not be hindered. The examples that are provided by the Protests of Egypt 2011, in which the Egyptian Government shutoff Internet Service for the General Public should not be repeated in the United Sates. Companies should be responsible for their own networks and the Internet Service Providers today were yesterday’s Bell Companies which had to have rules to operate under. Their pockets are their bottom line and there is no interest in providing the American people with the fastest service available. In the National Broadband Plan there are many goals that need to be achieved that fully depend on the willingness for Private Companies to spend money upgrading their infrastructure. Steps need to be made to ensure the Public receives promised goods and services. The North Carolina General Assembly is going to redraw the lines this year. I believe we get two extra Congressman from the Census results, any word on this? Have a good year!

Kind Regards,

Paul Michael Owens
