Washington appeals judge weighs revised net neutrality plan
Judge David Tatel signaled openness to the FCC's revised net neutrality rules during three hours of oral arguments. The panel reviewed a challenge to broadband treated as a public utility and protections against blocking or fast and slow lanes, amid the FCC's February adoption after a failed 2014 attempt. The judge cited a 2005 Supreme Court ruling allowing regulation as common carriers or information service providers.

Obama signs modest transportation bill into law
President Obama signed a five year 305 billion transportation bill to create jobs and support long term projects. The measure, approved by Congress a day earlier, boosts highway and transit funding but falls short of 400 billion over six years policymakers say is needed to curb congestion. The law extends the Import-Export Bank through 2019 and draws praise from Republicans and business groups for bipartisanship and reforms.
