Mr. Schneiderman,

Beyond efforts such as your lawsuit, what are some actions that local and state governments can undertake to ensure that net neutrality remains in-place within their jurisdiction, without the risk of being preempted by the FCC?

Another commenter here suggests municipal broadband as a possible response to the weakening or elimination of net neutrality. Do you see any legal constraints that may be imposed by federal law and/or FCC regulation on the efforts of states and local governments to foster "network neutral" internet utilities that can compete with carriers known to discriminate within their networks?
