Since that was a pretty old article - an update - the House already rejected the laws as amendments to the communications act - and the senate will probably do the same thing - basically the commerce commitee of the senate is working on it today - and would like to just put in a "surfers bill of rights" to prevent any corporatization of the internet - so basically they are going to reject any idea of ISPs being allowed to regulate/hamper American surfers. The Senate will then have a debate soon that is expected to go the same way as the House did - and totally reject the ideas of privatizing any parts of the Internet

Unfortunately a lot of news articles out there dont understand the concept and cant figure out when the congress says its voting AGAINST changes in net neutrality - that that is what we want - rejecting any regulation
