Public Domain Act Introduced Into Congress

Posted by simoniker on from the further-down-the-road dept.

AnElder writes "In his blog yesterday Lawrence Lessig said '...Congresswoman Lofgren (D-CA) and Congressman Doolittle (R-CA) have agreed to introduce the Public Domain Enhancement Act into Congress.' Today the Eldred Act website features two press releases announcing the act's introduction, as well as its immediate support by '...the American Association of Law Libraries, the American Library Association, and the Association of Research Libraries...'" We ran a link to the petition supporting this Act a few weeks back.

    Don't just sit back and hope this law passes. Write to your Congressman and your Senators and ask them to co-sponsor, or, failing that, at least to vote for it.
