They’re going to hold the Senate vote for the CRA sometime during mid-May, after the Senate recess, according to Politico.

MARKEY: NET NEUTRALITY VOTE IN MAY — Sen. Ed Markey,
the chief sponsor of a measure to overturn the FCC’s repeal of the net
neutrality rules via the Congressional Review Act, says he envisions it
hitting the floor next month. “We’re going to file it right after the
break and then we expect sometime in the middle of May to have it on the
Senate floor,” Markey told MT. The Massachusetts Democrat didn’t say
whether he had secured the elusive 51st vote to pass the CRA resolution
in the upper chamber on a simple majority. Senate Democrats and
independents, along with Republican Susan Collins of Maine, have thrown
their backing behind the measure.

There’s still time to call your senators and get that 51st vote!

history fucked me up

oxford was built and operational as a college before the rise of the mayans and cleopatra lived in a time nearer to pizza hut’s invention than to the pyramids being built

I need a noncomprehensive history book that covers Known World History in time periods, like “in this century, all this shit was happening concurrently” and not just all spread out so I have to piece it together like some unpaid uneducated scholar

Mongols were fighting Samurai in Japan and Knights in Europe at the same time. 

Star Wars a New Hope came out the same year as the last execution in France by Guillotine. 

Abraham Lincoln and Edgar Allen Poe were friends in their early 20′s. 

When the Great Pyramids were being built there were areas that still had Woolly Mammoths roaming. 

Harvard University didn’t teach calculus in its first few years after being established because calculus wasn’t invented yet.
