At a "press conference," held on Thursday January 4th, the Democrat introduced the "100 hours" plan for enacting new laws. The press conference was conducted in a virtual adaptation of the Capitol building in Washington, D.C.

Miller, chairman of the Democratic Policy Committee, called for a bill with strong network neutrality provisions. He also threw his support behind legislation that would require Congress to post on the Internet any bill at least 72 hours before a vote. The Internet posting would also have to include any "earmarks," the controversial funding method for lawmakers' favorite projects, attached to the legislation.

"I'm the canary in the coal mine," Miller said. "Second Life is the next frontier and hopefully other members will use it to expand the [public's] interest and participation in Congress."
