The Copyright Alliance congratulates Representatives Chu and Marino for their leadership in releasing a discussion draft of the Copyright Office for the Digital Economy Act (CODE Act). The discussion draft thoughtfully outlines how the structure and role of the Copyright Office might be updated to serve the needs of the public in the digital age. The CODE Act draft carefully considers a variety of legal and practical issues involved in modernizing the Copyright Office so that it may serve as a full partner to Congress in more nimbly addressing the complex issues presented by the rapidly evolving marketplace for copyrighted works. The members of the Copyright Alliance look forward to engaging in further conversation with other stakeholders and with members of the House Judiciary Committee and the Administration about this draft to ensure that all issues relevant to the modernization of this important office are fully considered. ### ABOUT THE COPYRIGHT ALLIANCE The Copyright Alliance is a non-profit, non-partisan public interest and educational organization representing artists and creators across the spectrum of copyright disciplines, including over 40 artist membership associations, guilds, trade associations and companies, and 15,000 individual artists and creators.
