Our Advocacy Focus

We work on the issues that matter most to writers, from protecting intellectual property to ensuring freedom of expression.

Copyright Protection

We advocate for strong copyright protections that ensure authors can make a living from their creative work while maintaining control over how it's used.

Free Speech

We oppose all forms of censorship and support legislation that protects freedom of expression for writers and readers alike.

AI & Technology

We're fighting to ensure AI development respects authors' rights, including fair compensation for use of copyrighted works in training AI models.

Book Banning

We stand against book bans that obstruct the right to read freely and make it harder for professional writers to reach their audiences.
