Protect Connecticut’s creative economy.
Anti-copyright forces are working in state legislatures across the country, and especially Connecticut, to jeopardize intellectual property through dangerous attacks that
are unconstitutional.
The U.S. Copyright Act stems directly from the U.S. Constitution and grants authors and creators of all kinds the exclusive rights to their creative expression, including, especially, the right to make it available to the public through a variety of licensing terms and business models.
Without these copyright protections, the enormous contributions that American authors and creators make to global culture, education, innovation, and a free and open democracy, would be threatened.
Connecticut legislators: Protect Connecticut’s creative economy.
