President Donald Trump will nominate the second Supreme Court Justice pick of his tenure on Monday night, and one of the top contenders is a major net neutrality opponent.

Trump has narrowed down his options to four federal judges: Brett Kavanaugh, Thomas Hardiman, Raymond Kethledge, and Amy Coney Barrett. Along with having a record of siding with anti-abortion and anti-contraception groups, Kavanaugh, who sits on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit, also recently argued that net neutrality rules were unconstitutional because the violated the free speech rights of ISPs.
