OPEN: Online Protection & ENforcement of Digital Trade Act

The OPEN Act was formally introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on January 18, 2012. This version includes user-generated improvements to the draft version. OPEN secures two fundamental principles. First, Americans have a right to benefit from what they've created. And second, Americans have a right to an open Internet. Our duty is to protect these rights. That's why congressional Republicans, Democrats and the public came together to write the OPEN Act. But it's only a start. We need your ideas: sign up, comment and collaborate to build a better bill.
