CMA legislative update

By Art Brodsky  | September 20, 2006

Most recent activity:

The Copyright Modernization Act (HR 6052) was pulled from the markup agenda today at the House Judiciary Committee. There is some new language around that we're looking at, dealing in large part with the orphan works section of the bill. None of the crucial issues surrounding innovation and the attacks on satellite radio were changed.

You can see the text of a proposed manager's amendment here.
