The White House threatened on Monday to veto any bill from Congress that would scuttle new rules aimed at keeping internet access free and open.

"If the president is presented with a resolution of disapproval that would not safeguard the free and open Internet, his senior advisers would recommend that he veto the resolution," the Office of Management and Budget said in a Statement of Administration Policy.
