The Internet is one of the greatest forces for innovation and economic creation in history. It offers the ability for billions of people to access information and connect with one another in milliseconds. And it’s enabled LinkedIn to connect talent with opportunity at massive scale for nearly a decade.
The policies that shape the future of the Internet have a direct impact on the well-being and livelihoods of the more than 175 million LinkedIn members around the globe, including more than 65 million Americans. We think it’s important that our policymakers and legislators hear from us, and other Internet companies, about the value that this platform delivers to Americans. That’s why we’re proud to be a founding member of The Internet Association – the unified voice of the Internet economy, representing the interests of America’s leading Internet companies and their global community of users.
