REGARDING: House subcommittee passage of HR 4279, the PRO-IP Act

“Today’s action represents important progress for everyone concerned about better enforcement of America’s intellectual property rights. Having spent time at the Justice Department tackling IP enforcement and coordination issues, I understand the challenge of managing resources effectively and applaud the Subcommittee’s efforts to provide leadership in this area. This bill will go a long way towards making sure law enforcement agencies have what they need to get the job done on both domestic and international fronts.
