Today Is INDUCE Act Call-in Day

Posted by timothy on from the hi-there-senator dept.

evilpenguin writes "Downhill Battle and the EFF, or Electronic Frontier Foundation are teaming up today to organize a Congressional call-in to oppose the INDUCE act. Sign up for the effort at the aptly named savebetamax.org. This is a chance to have a real impact on an important issue. The call-in is today, so if you oppose INDUCE, follow the betamax link today!"

    copy-pasted wrong 800 number, I feel like such a dork!

    Well, if it is XBOX, then lets /. them instead.

    If you look at the list of sponsors of the INDUCE act, you will find that more Democrats are sponsoring it than Republicans:

    Orrin Hatch, Sponsor (R)
    Cosponsors:
    Sen Alexander, Lamar [TN] - (R) - 7/15/2004
    Sen Boxer, Barbara [CA] - (D) - 6/22/2004
    Sen Clinton, Hillary Rodham [NY] - (D) - 7/7/2004
    Sen Daschle, Thomas A. [SD] - (D) 6/22/2004
    Sen Frist, Bill [TN] - (R) - 6/22/2004
    Sen Graham, Bob [FL] - (D) - 9/22/2004
    Sen Graham, Lindsey O. [SC] - (R) - 6/22/2004
    Sen Leahy, Patrick J. [VT] - (D) - 6/22/2004
    Sen Sarbanes, Paul S. [MD] - (D) - 7/12/2004
    Sen Stabenow, Debbie [MI] - (D) - 7/15/2004

    The Democrats are just as much in the pocket of Hollywood and willing to get rid of Betamax as the Republicans are.
