Reject the Senate

The Sen­ate wants to put your child in jail for watch­ing a youtube video?

What no way, I mean dont they have enough prob­lem with the debt and the econ­o­my with­out try­ing to pass a law to make it a felony to watch a video online? 

Real­ly this is the hope and the change you vot­ed for?

TAKE ACTION: OPPOSE THE PROTECT IP ACT

We knew that mem­bers of Con­gress and their busi­ness allies were gear­ing up to pass a new ver­sion of the Inter­net Black­list Bill — which more than 325,000 Demand Progress mem­bers helped block last win­ter — but we nev­er expect­ed it to be this atro­cious.

Sen­a­tors Leahy and Hatch revised the orig­i­nal bill, intro­duc­ing new leg­is­la­tion that would insti­tute a cen­sor­ship regime in the Unit­ed States. Under PROTECT-IP, the Depart­ment of Jus­tice could force search engines, browsers, and ser­vice providers to block users’ access to web­sites, and scrub the Amer­i­can Inter­net clean of evi­dence of their exis­tence.

We need to stop this bill because it is not good for Amer­i­ca.
