In an extraordinary move, President Obama just issued a statement saying he would veto CISPA were it to reach his desk unamended.
With this latest development, the tech companies in support of this bill are becoming increasingly isolated. If we can peel them off, it's unlikely CISPA will pass unless radically altered.
Access wrote to every tech company who supported CISPA telling them of your opposition. Yesterday, thanks to you, our petition doubled in numbers. With the House set to vote on CISPA on Friday, the next 24 hours will be critical.
While the President has spoken out, the tech companies have been conspicuously silent. You've already taken action on this bill, but we need your friends and family to do so as well if we want tech companies to flip their position. Help us get to 50,000 before Friday's vote.

Keep up the fight,
