Oddly enough, publicknowledge.org took the time to strip the party identities from the news posting that they otherwise copied verbatim.
»judiciary.house.gov/newscenter.aspx?A=887
Here is the original opening line.
"House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers, Jr. (D-MI),
Ranking Member Lamar Smith (R-TX),
Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet and Intellectual Property Chairman Howard Berman (D-CA),
and Reps. Adam Schiff (D-CA),
Tom Feeney (R-FL),
Darrell Issa (R-CA),
Steve Chabot (R-OH),
Steve Cohen (D-TN),
Ric Keller (R-FL),
Sheila Jackson-Lee (D-TX),
Bob Goodlatte (R-VA),
and Robert Wexler (D-FL)
introduced the "Prioritizing Resources and Organization for Intellectual Property (“PRO IP”) Act of 2007" to combat what they say is an increasing problem."
Looks like a pretty even party split.
Anybody here in your district? If I can find the time, I'll amend this to include contact info for each of them.
I recommend letting them know your opinion as well as anyone in your area that might vote on it.
To the posters who support this bill, but won't even speak out against RIAA execs who have stolen billions from consumers:
How do you even live with yourself? Regarding the thing that has you supporting executive crime by omission and hammering end users; in that respect, you are a despicable person. That you won't speak to the issue is further evidence.

Re: edit: I've become a parrot to TKJunkmail! Your representative does not have to be on that list to write them a letter. In order to get Congress to act as you wish, you must let them know what you want. There is a sticky in the filesharing software forum of a sample letter to your Representative, along with links to get their contact info. It was written against the "Campus Based Digital Theft Prevention", but could easily be modified to fit this. You don't have to be someone who shares files to disagree with the tactics of the **AA. This is an assault on technology, by those who refuse to keep up. Sooner or later, this sort of thinking will affect all who embrace technology, in one form or another. |

You do realize all they do is send a boiler plated sample letter right back and continue the agenda for their Corporate masters? |

| I wish they did that much. My Representative never even bothered to do that. At least she saved me the trouble of wondering who to vote for come November. It's the only avenue we have. Might as well try, it doesn't take any more effort than complaining here. Although it is less fun. |
