News: Congress joins the iPod generation

May/June 2006 Issue

The Fools on the Hill

The Intellectual Porperty Action Committee, a fair-use advocacy organization that lobbies against industry-friendly copyright legislation, is raising funds to give every member of Congress an iPod so they might better appreciate the value of stol—uh, easily accessible—music.
