Please click here for more details, and tell the White House and Congress to stand by Americans' rights to resell the things we own.
Product manufacturers are trying to take away your right to resell items that are manufactured abroad, in whole or in part. In this globalized world, that's almost anything you own. Today we're launching YouveBeenOnwed.org to help Americans fight back.
