On Thursday, March 22, the Keep Us Connected Coalition [1] hosted this press conference to oppose Illinois House Bill 1500.

This AT&T-backed legislation abandons many public interest benefits and consumer protections which come through existing video franchising laws.

It also threatens Public, Educational and Governmental (PEG) access stations.
