  Wired News is now reporting that Senator Leahy, chairman of the Senate
  Judiciary committee (which for some reason has jurisdiction over the
  SSSCA / CBDTPA) is opposed to the measure and has stated his intention
  to prevent it from reaching a vote this year.

  However, the bill (or one like it) is still proceeding in the House
  and if Leahy's opposition should falter or fail the bill is still a
  danger.  It's still important to contact your elected representatives
  to let them know that you're strongly opposed to this legislation.
