"In a statement of issues (pdf) outlining its legal assault on the FCC's net neutrality rules, AT&T makes it clear it will claim the new rules violate the company's First Amendment rights. The filing doesn't really detail AT&T's full legal reasoning, but the telco plans to argue that the FCC's new rules "violate the terms of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and the First and Fifth Amendments to the US Constitution."
