Energy Policy: The Continuing Debate and Omnibus Energy Legislation (open access)

Energy Policy: The Continuing Debate and Omnibus Energy Legislation

The history of omnibus energy legislation in the 108th Congress has been protracted. The House passed the conference version of H.R. 6 on November 18, 2003. On November 21, a cloture motion to limit debate in the Senate on the H.R. 6 conference report failed (57-40). Efforts to bring the bill back to the Senate floor early in the second session were unsuccessful. Some argued that any major changes to the legislation would not be viable because of the careful regional and political compromises that were reached to get a bill out of conference and through the House. The closest consensus was that the cost of the bill had to be reduced.

Copyright Law: Digital Rights Management Legislation (open access)

Copyright Law: Digital Rights Management Legislation

Digital Rights Management (DRM) refers to the technology that copyright owners use to protect digital media.
