FCC Net Neutrality Order: No Transparency

Does the public have the right to see the FCC's net neutrality proposal?

In fact, nobody will be able to read the order until after it is passed.

The lag between passage and publishing is normal for the FCC. What is different is the secrecy in advance of a vote.
