House Passes CISPA

[mrjarrell]

Here's hoping that it gets killed in the senate or that Obama actually holds to his guns and vetos it. I'm really tired of these so-called small government republicans passing **** like this. They are no friends of the republic and should be hounded from office for their anti-liberty stances.

All 7 of Indiana's Republicans voted yea.

As mentioned in the other thread, I hope the partisanship on this bill keeps Reid from letting it even get to a vote. After NDAA, Obama's veto promises are worthless.

This better get stopped somewhere. This is a HUGE violation of our rights.

looks like its time to bombard coats and donnelly against this.

think they were trying to get this passed sneakily while we were "celebrating" a victory against the gun laws.

And yet, most INGO voters will vote to reelect these schmucks next time around. All because they have the sacred letter after their name.

Socialism at its best!!!
Dont count on Donnally to do the peoples business, especially after he voted for the background check legislation. I recieved a letter from him assuring me that the 2nd amendment was safe with him. I think the boy lies.

I sure hope the voters wake up in 2014 elections.

Sent to my US Rep...

Hi Jackie! Trust you and Dean are doing well. Heard that CISPA passed the House today, checked the roll call, and saw that ALL Hoosier (R) Congressmen voted in favor. What a disappointment.

When the ACLU is looking to protect citizen's privacy rights more than conservative, supposedly "limited government", representatives... well, the problem in Washington is grossly greater than I imagined.

I can't believe that you and Reps Stutzman and Rokita voted for this monstrosity. And to hear Mike McCaul invoke the tragedy in Boston as justification to mine private data was absolutely disgusting... as vile as the President parading Newtown parents up to the microphone during his presser yesterday; as vile as Dems invoking Sandy Hook, Aurora, et al to justify gutting the Second Amendment.

When it comes to empowering the federal government to override Constitutional boundaries, I guess it doesn't matter if you have a (D) or (R) after your name.

I truly hope this terrible Bill dies in the Senate. I can't believe you support the idea of legalizing private sector firms to search personal and sensitive user data of ordinary US residents at the behest of the Federal government without a warrant.

Searching for a representative bound to their oath of office,

SR

Popvox is showing it as not yet passed in the house, just amendments. So I wrote to oppose it again...
