SOPA/PIPA Tools: Contact Your Senator/Representative

Write Your Senator directory (if needed) to protest PIPA, the Senate bill

Write Your Representative (if needed) to protest SOPA, the House bill

Subject example: Please Don’t Enact SOPA [PIPA]

Message example:

Dear [Senator/Representative Lastname],

I am writing to voice my concern about poorly crafted legislation (SOPA/PIPA) that, if enacted, would harm the U.S. economy, businesses, and their customers and constituents. Americans have begun to see the benefits of open online sharing, which this legislation could curtail and harm. It could be a significant set-back for our people and our economy. 

I also believe in copyright protection for creators, but neither SOPA or PIPA in their current forms are the way to do it. 

Thank you for your consideration.
