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

Meeting went pretty well! Our group was joined by about 4-5 others who had been rallied via Reddit (I think anyway, didn't get a chance to chat with all of them afterwards) We tele-conferenced with a counsel from Sen. Cornyn's Judiciary Staff. I t…

Folks - for those that really wanted to attend the meeting, why not work to set up another one? No one as yet that I'm aware of, has set anything up with Sen. Hutchison or her office. SOPA is also working it's way through the House so contacting Re…

@StopSOPA-HQ - Absolutely. Anyone including a local CEO that wants to join would be MORE than welcome. To be honest I don't have that kind of juice (I'm just a concerned citizen) so something like that would be FANTASTIC. Incidentally, my friend …

Just sent an email to Ms. Dornan and will call Scott with Sen. Hutchison's office tomorrow. I'll report back if I get anywhere with setting up a meeting and I'll be watching this forum closely in case anyone else gets through. FWIW I live in Austin …
