The Federal Communications Commission will vote on new rules and restrictions on net neutrality in February, officials said Friday.

According to a Washington Post report, FCC chairman Tom Wheeler is planning to circulate a draft proposal to fellow commissioners “with an eye toward approving the measure weeks later.”

At the heart of the debate is the issue of equality on the internet. Supporters of net neutrality are calling for strict rules that would prevent cable giants like Comcast and Verizon from using so-called “fast lanes” to speed up or slow down websites—and charge content providers higher rates for the privilege of faster loading times.

Opponents are pushing for looser regulations that they say would prevent overuse of bandwidth and support investments in better networks.

Although the specifics of Wheeler’s proposal are still unpublished, the Post reports that “momentum has been building recently for far more aggressive regulations than Wheeler had initially proposed.”
