Delayed... till Wednesday.

I can hear the glass that was the internet shattering from the future.

Mike Masnick: Update.... Or not. Despite the fact that Congress was supposed to be out of session until the end of January, the Judiciary Committee has just announced plans to come back to continue the markup this coming Wednesday. This is rather unusual and totally unnecessary. But it shows just how desperate Hollywood is to pass this bill as quickly as possible, before the momentum of opposition builds up even further.

I'm actually trying to get a Congressional Gallery pass for Wednesday, to see the session in person.

Although it looks like if I do, I can't live-blog/tweet it, as you can't bring anything electronic into the gallery. That makes watching it on CSPAN a little more appealing.
