NHMC Supports California’s Strong Net Neutrality Bill

On April 9, 2018 the National Hispanic Media Coalition’s (NHMC) President & CEO Alex Nogales sent a letter to Senator Scott Wiener in support of California’s Net Neutrality Act, Senate Bill (SB) 822.

The letter states that “Net Neutrality is essential to preserving the Internet as an open platform where Latinos can foster entrepreneurship, engage in authentic storytelling, and promote civic engagement without gatekeepers standing in the way.” SB 822 is “state legislation aimed at protecting consumers” which will help ensure that every Californian “can connect, innovate, and organize online no matter the size of their wallets or color of their skin.”

National Hispanic Media Coalition (NHMC) is a woman-led 501(c)(3) non-profit, nonpartisan, civil and human rights organization that was founded to eliminate hate, discrimination, and racism toward Latino and marginalized communities.

We educate and increase Latino visibility from our policy work in Washington, D.C., to our media advocacy work in Hollywood, where we connect, collaborate, and create with talent within the entertainment industry.

We lead the work to eliminate online hate and disinformation across media platforms. We advocate for the Affordable Connectivity Program, Lifeline Program, Net Neutrality protections, and closing the digital divide for Latino and other marginalized communities. NHMC works in partnership with other social justice organizations to safeguard democracy in the United States of America.

NHMC is a not-for-profit, and provides equal opportunities to all individuals without regard to race, religion, national origin, disability, age, marital status, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity or expression, veteran status, or any other status protected by law
