The Senate has 51 Republicans but 3 of them are rather independent/centrist and sometimes vote with Democrats.

A lot of Republicans support Net Neutrality, including the stalwart conservative Scalia. The main reason so many current Republicans oppose it, is the association with Obama, and the piles of money Telecom is floating their way.
