The House Judiciary Committee has canceled its scheduled markup of the controversial Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA).

A Judiciary aide said that because the House will not be in session Dec 21, the committee will take up the measure when Congress returns. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) said the House would be in session “as necessary” over the holiday season for work on the payroll-tax bill.
