CHRIST INVERSION – Set To Release “13th Century Luciferian Rites”

The Senate Judiciary Committee approved the Act already in a 14-4 vote earlier this month. President Bush then sent a letter to the Committee saying that he would likely veto the proposed legislation, which would allow federal prosecutors to bring civil suits against illegal file sharers. Since then, that part of the bill has been removed and it was officially passed by the full Senate this past Friday.

The House of Representatives is expected to pass the legislation before Congress adjourns, then sending the bill to the President to become law. Specifically, the Act will:

1) Prioritize the federal government response to domestic intellectual property crimes by streamlining the coordination and improvement of interagency efforts.

2.) Provide grants to the Department of Justice to assist state and local law enforcement agencies in enforcing intellectual property‑related crimes.

3) Devote additional agents and resources to the FBI for the study, implementation and active enforcement of efforts against intellectual property and counterfeiting crimes.

4) Provide tools to better gather evidence for the prosecution of IP crimes.

RIAA Chairman/CEO Mitch Bainwol commented, "This bill truly is music to the ears of all those who care about strengthening American creativity and jobs. At a critical economic juncture, this bipartisan legislation provides enhanced protection for an important asset that helps lead our global competitiveness. The intellectual property industries are widely recognized as a cornerstone of the U.S. economy. Additional tools for intellectual property enforcement are not just good for the copyright community but for consumers who will enjoy a wider array of legitimate offerings. We congratulate and commend Senators Leahy and Specter and Congressmen Conyers, Berman, Smith and Coble for their leadership and commitment on this important issue."
