Jan 18, 2012 Press release
“SOPA and PIPA are well-intentioned proposals that attempt to address online piracy concerns; however, in their current form the legislation goes too far. The proposals can present damaging ramifications to free speech, global cybersecurity and Internet functionality. At this time, I do not support SOPA and PIPA in their current form, and I hope further committee hearings will be held to resolve these concerns.
