Coalition to Abolish the AETA

I'm concerned about the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act. Here's an interesting description of the AETA and why it's bad.

http://abolishtheaeta.org/web/legislative-history/

"The language of the AETA covers many First Amendment activities, such as picketing, boycotts and undercover investigations if they 'interfere' with an animal enterprise by causing a loss of profits. So in effect, The AETA silences the peaceful and lawful protest activities of animal and environmental advocates."
