Senator Franken, please don’t break the Internet

When it comes to protecting the Internet, Al Franken is usually our best friend. He’s been an outspoken advocate for Net Neutrality, as well as consumer-friendly privacy policies. But with his sponsorship of the so-called “Protect IP Act,” Franken is making a serious mistake.

Like most bills, Protect IP means well. Franken’s staff explained to MN Progressive Project’s Eric Pusey that he believes it will protect American jobs. However, he’s dead wrong on this one. In fact, Protect IP breaks the Internet. The video below shows how.

Eric Pusey is asking folks to write or call Franken and tell him you oppose Protect IP. Call Franken’s office today — then stop by MN Progressive Project and let him know how it went.
