Innovation Design Protection and Piracy Prevention Act Passes Through Senate Judiciary Committee

You might recall our writing about New York senator Charles Schumer introducing a bill this summer that would offer more design-based copyright protection to fashion labels. While two years ago, a variation of the bill failed on the Senate floor, it appears that this time around might have a much rosier outcome for the Council of Fashion Designers of America and the American Apparel and Footwear Association, the two main design groups lobbying hard to get it passed.
