Jan 18, 2012 States opposition to SOPA in its current form
"I oppose H.R. 3261, the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), as it currently stands. Intellectual property theft and online piracy are wrong, but the current language of SOPA is too broad and could have many unintended consequences for American innovators and job creators. Congress needs to work with the tech community to come up with a reasonable and responsible way to protect intellectual property without stifling innovation or economic growth. H.R. 3261 has been referred to the House Judiciary Committee and currently awaits further legislative action. I will continue to listen to your thoughts and concerns on the SOPA and PIPA legislation."
