John Conyers actually said...

"Unfortunately, piracy and counterfeiting of American intellectual property are directly responsible for the loss of billions of dollars and millions of jobs."

"An intellectual property system that protects copyrights incentivizes their owners to continue to innovate and that in turn, of course, creates jobs and strengthens our Nation's economy."

"We need to provide more resources to protect copyright domestically and abroad."

"I find this analysis wholly unpersuasive."
