Please stop S. 968 and the PROTECT IP Act!



Message

Dear [Recipient],

I am writing to you as a voter in your district. I urge you to oppose the House version of S. 968, the PROTECT IP Act. The PROTECT IP Act is dangerous, ineffective, and short-sighted. The House version -- just introduced by Rep. Goodlatte -- is far worse.

Over coming days you'll be hearing from the many businesses, advocacy organizations, and ordinary Americans who oppose this legislation because of the myriad ways in which it will stifle free speech and innovation. We hope you'll take our concerns to heart and oppose this legislation.

In a time when our economy is weak, and our unemployment is skyrocketing, any legislation that seeks to further infringe upon our rights should be looked upon with the highest disdain. I would hope that as the representatives of our FREEDOMS, that you will act as Americans, and not politicians, and STOP this blatant attack on a medium that is used by and large for the betterment of our society. A blanket bill that is being created by lobbyists to protect one extremely small, (and generally greed run) facet of our society, and that will be used like a phalanx of shocktroops on the common man sickens me, as I certainly hope that it sickens you as well.

Sincerely,

Jeremy Nelson
