          <text>&lt;p&gt;This joint resolution nullifies the final rule issued by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) titled &lt;em&gt;Safeguarding and Securing the Open Internet; Restoring Internet Freedom&lt;/em&gt; and published on May 22, 2024. The rule classifies broadband internet as a telecommunications service for purposes of FCC regulation and prohibits broadband providers from blocking or slowing traffic to lawful content and from engaging in paid prioritization arrangements. (These provisions are commonly referred to as net neutrality rules.) &lt;/p&gt;</text>
