Today, 26 bipartisan public interest, consumer advocacy, media, and civil society groups, including CCIA, signed a letter to Congressional leadership, organized by Public Knowledge, urging them not to include this controversial bill, the JCPA, in any pending must-pass legislation.

The broad coalition writes, “We urge you not to include the JCPA in any pending legislation, including the NDAA. This bill, despite months of advocacy and multiple revisions, contains far too many contradictions, complexities, and problems to be included in any omnibus or must-pass legislation.”

The groups continue, “the JCPA will compound some of the biggest issues in our information landscape and do little to enable the most promising new models to improve it.”
