Our data partners at Maplight.org have already verified 48 organizations that are actively supporting this bill, including some with the most powerful lobbying teams in Washington D.C., like the Motion Picture Association of America, the Recording Industry Association of America, the US Chamber of Commerce, and AT&T. Together, they have donated more than $2 million to Senate Majriuty Leader Harry Reid [D, NV] and more than $700,000 to Senate Judiciary Chairman Pat Leahy [D, VT]. The House has taken large amounts of money from these organizations as well, with Majority Leader Eric Cantor [R, VA-7] sixth on the list of top recipients, with $234,300, and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi [D, CA-8] ninth, with $200,557.
