Stop American Censorship
Internet censorship is going to a vote in the Senate on January 24th (known as PIPA in the Senate and SOPA in the House). While Senators are in their home states for the January recess, we need to flood their public meetings and offices with our concerns about the bill. Learn More
Idaho for Internet Freedom
Top Priority for ID: Set up Meetings
There aren't any public events yet, so the most important thing is to get meetings with Senators. Here's what you need to do:
- Call (208) 334-1776 or fill out this form and fax (208) 334-9044 attn: "Bryan Raybon" to meet with Senator Crapo, who has no public position on PIPA.
- Fill out this form
or call 208-342-7985 to meet with Senator Risch, a co-sponsor of PIPA.
Be polite and professional, and request a meeting on behalf of Idaho for Internet Freedom (the folks in this forum) to discuss the PROTECT IP Act and SOPA. Make it clear that you want to meet with the Senator during the January recess, and that you'll be bringing others from your group. Have your calendar open when you call, so you can pick a time that works for you. When finished, post a report-back.
For example: "Hi, my name is ________, I'm with idaho for Internet freedom, and I'm calling to request a meeting with Senator _______ during the January recess. The PROTECT IP vote is happening on January 24th, and I wanted the Senator to understand my concerns before the vote happens."
IMPORTANT: If you do get a meeting, post another message. That way others can join you in your meeting. If there's any other specific information we should include in this post, message us and we can add it.

As a citizen of Idaho I am ashamed that one of my so-called representatives co-sponsored PIPA. You bring disgrace to Idaho Mr. Risch.
All - Please post here when the meetings with Crapo and Risch have been set.
