Following the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Binding Operational Directive (BOD) on September 13th banning the use of Kaspersky Labs anti-virus (AV) software across the federal government, there are still unanswered questions about how

Please join us in urging Sec. Tillerson and the Administration to condemn the recent crackdown of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people in Azerbaijan. Several reports have estimated over 80 people were arrested and fined, while at
least 45 were detained, beaten and tortured. While the Azeri government has claimed arrests made over the past two weeks were not strictly targeting the LGBTQ community, local activists and rights groups say the raids only led to the arrests of gay and trans
people. According to activists, the government focused on “main streets, metro stations and LGBT-friendly places like clubs, pubs, and bars” as its main targets.

In July, Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) and I introduced bipartisan legislation to close a long-standing gap in federal copyright law. H.R. 3301, the Compensating Legacy Artists for their Songs, Service, and Important Contributions to Society Act (the
CLASSICS Act) resolves uncertainty over the copyright protections afforded to sound recordings made before 1972 by bringing these recordings into the federal copyright system and ensuring that digital transmissions of both pre- and post-1972 recordings are
treated equitably.
