Need quick education on SOPA and PIPA

[Sarah El Ebiary]

I think the best argument that will perk the ears of these congresspersons
is telling them if SOPA and PIPA passes, then it would significantly harm
the success of their own future campaigns, inhibit online communications to
their constituents, and tarnish their social media presence since entire
websites they both use would be taken down, such as Facebook, YouTube, and
Twitter etc. because these websites allegedly facilitate or enable (or
merely link to) the illegal distribution of copyrighted content online.

Unfortunately, Nancy Pelosi, as the representative for a region in
California where most of the entertainment companies that sponsored these
bills are located, will never vote against it. When the studios say "Jump!"
she asks "How high?"

In 2 hours I'm going to see two congress critters. Nancy Pelosi and Mike
Honda at a fundraiser in Palo Alto.

What is the most effective argument I can make to these people that will
result in changing their minds?
