WASHINGTON - Wisconsin’s First District Congressman Paul Ryan released the following statement regarding H.R. 3261, the Stop Online Piracy Act:


"The internet is one of the most magnificent expressions of freedom and free enterprise in history. It should stay that way. While H.R. 3261, the Stop Online Piracy Act, attempts to address a legitimate problem, I believe it creates the precedent and possibility for undue regulation, censorship and legal abuse. I do not support H.R. 3261 in its current form and will oppose the legislation should it come before the full House."

This is HUGE! Paul Ryan was one of the biggest front runners for the SOPA bill and the fact he is now reversing his decision will send shock waves through out Washington. Hopefully this will be the beginning of the end of this terrible piece of work.

CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES AND TELL THEM TO OPPOSE H.R. 3261!
