The wording on this bill is so vague, anyone who speaks out against the government can potentially be punished through this, if it comes into law. There has been a media blackout on this, so I am hoping to spread some info, and perhaps get people to act.


It passed the House, and is up for vote in the Senate. It has *NOT* been trashed.

Of the 15 Co-sponsors of this bill in the House, 11 of them are Dems. Only 4 are Republicans. It passed the house with a vote of 404 to 6 (22 missed).

Don't think for a moment anyone in congress is on your side. They only care enough so they can be re-elected.
