  "textContent": "WASHINGTON, August 6, 2025 – Facing a Friday deadline, public interest groups have yet to disclose whether they will take the Net Neutrality fight to the Supreme Court or _let the current legal battle die._\n\nIn April 2024, the FCC under Democratic Chair **Jessica Rosenworcel** adopted the Net Neutrality rules, which reclassified broadband internet service as a Title II telecommunications service under the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and gave the FCC regulatory authority over them.\n\nIn January 2025, a unanimous three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit in Cincinnati struck down the rules, holding that the FCC lacked the statutory authority to impose the regulations – especially in light of the Supreme Court’s June 2024 decision in _Loper Bright_ , which ended judicial deference to FCC interpretation of ambiguous laws.\n\n\n\n_****There's a whole community behind your FREE membership...****_\n\n There's a whole community behind your FREE membership... \n\nIn late May, Supreme Court Justice **Brett M. Kavanaugh** , who oversees the Sixth Circuit, _granted_ Free Press, New America's Open Technology Institute, Public Knowledge, and the Benton Institute for Broadband & Society _an extension until Aug. 8, 2025_, to file an appeal.\n\nNew America confirmed it planned to issue a joint release Friday.",
