Stop Illegal Internet Porn

The Internet is under siege from pornographers who are illegally using your computer to harm your family and your children. In an effort to safeguard our homes, children, families, businesses, schools and libraries from unwanted and illegal online pornography, Grassfire has launched a national petition to stop Illegal Internet Porn.

To date, we’ve delivered hundreds of thousands of petitions, and met with key leaders in both the U.S. Justice Department and the Senate—DEMANDING REAL ACTION BE TAKEN AGAINST THE PROLIFERATION OF INTERNET PORN.

Our efforts have made a positive impact, but there is more work to be done—especially considering the recent ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court barring enforcement of the Child Online Protection Act.

Grassfire will be presenting petitions in support of the Internet Safety and Child Protection Act of 2005 during the first week of August. This bill, introduced by Sen. Blanche Lincoln (D-AK) proposes a 25 percent federal tax on Internet porn, and tougher requirements for accessing adult Web sites to help prevent children from being victimized.

Grassfire is seeking to mobilize 440,000 citizen signers to take part in this presentation who are standing against the proliferation of Internet pornography! Please sign this petition now!
