Item 4N Resolution No. 08 -014
A foundation known as the CP80 Foundation
has proposed federal legislation that would
create a second port and enable families to
choose whether their internet service contains
adult material.
Resolution No. 08 -014 expresses our support for
legislation that would allow families and
businesses the option of receiving the internet
without adult material.
