Sorry I'm not buying into the panic.

Between wide scale TLS deployment and larger swaths of bandwidth available, I'd rather see free market solutions so these regulatory powers can't be abused. Net neutrality only matters if your ISP can decrypt your traffic and there is a limited share of bandwidth available.

What is the most effective avenue to voice my concerns?

Call the FCC. Call your representatives. Make sure they know that you're in their district and that you vote.

When the FCC ran demos of broadband over power, it caused a tremendous amount of radio disturbance. Ham radio operators saw the disturbance on their licensed parts of the spectrum. They feared the FCC was killing Ham radio. So they wrote letters. Lots of letters. The FCC heard them and abandoned the trial of that technology.
