Thanks to the hard work of Tracy at Media Alliance and others in the consortium, the Oakland Internet Choice Initiative is finally making it to a public Oakland City Council meeting! If you have time on Tuesday, and care about protecting people's choice of ISP, it could mean a lot to leave a short public comment. Or, if you just want to tune in and listen and get a sense of how local politics in Oakland works, this is an opportunity! Reminder of what Oakland Internet Choice is all about: https://oaklandinternetchoice.com/ *Tuesday is the big day. At the Oakland City Council meeting, we will have the first reading of the Oakland Internet Choice ordinance. * OICC is the last item on the action calendar, but *the meeting will be taking public comment at the front of the agenda, so all that you need to do is call or zoom in at 1:30pm on Tuesday and indicate a desire to speak when they call for public comment for items on the agenda*. It seems likely comments will be short, so be prepared for one minute. *Greenlining and myself will have to hang in until the end of the meeting, but you don't have to!* Here is the information: *Oakland City Council* *Tuesday October 5* *Meeting start time: 1:30pm* *Agenda item 10* *Position: Support* *Zoom: https://uso2web.zoom.us/j/83417090477 <https://uso2web.zoom.us/j/83417090477>* *Phone: 669 900 6833 * *Meeting ID 834 1709 0477* *--*Benny On Wed, Nov 13, 2019, 8:43 AM Jenny Ryan &lt;jenny(a)jennyryan.net&gt; wrote:
