This must be about the proposed IDPPPA
S. 3728, The Innovative Design Protection and Piracy Prevention Act
Proposed by Sen. Schumer on Aug. 05
http://runway.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/08/05/schumer-bill-seeks-to-protect-fashion-design/?partner=rss&emc=rss

here is the entiere proposed bill:

a nice example of lobbying.
