Little late on this but a bill to protect bloggers was introduced in the House back on the April 3rd. H.R. 5699 was introduced by Rep. Jeb Hensarling of Texas and currently has 36 co-sponsors (all Republicans). Puerto RIco’s Representative makes 37 but is non-voting
Contact your Representatives and urge them to support this bill. It’s shameful that most of the Republican leadership hasn’t signed on yet at this point, but even more shameful that this bill isn’t receiving bi-partisan support.
