Statement on SOPA

Statement

Date: Jan. 18, 2012
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Technology and Communication

While protecting intellectual property and guarding against online piracy is important, we need to find a better way to do so than this bill. Congress should not stifle the legitimate and legal use of the internet and the freedom and innovation it fosters.

I applaud the online community for reaching out to my office and participating in the democratic process by opening up the debate on this legislation to the public.
