    This Act may be cited as the ``Childrens' Media Protection Act of 
1995''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) On average, a child in the United States is exposed to 
        27 hours of television each week, and some children are exposed 
        to as much as 11 hours of television each day.
            (2) The average American child watches 8,000 murders and 
        100,000 acts of other violence on television by the time the 
        child completes elementary school.
            (3) By the age of 18 years, the average American teenager 
        has watched 200,000 acts of violence on television, including 
        40,000 murders.
            (4) The Times Mirror Center reports that a recent poll of 
        Americans indicates that 72 percent of the American people 
        believe that there is too much violence on television, and, 
        according to a survey by U.S. News and World Report dated May 
        1994, 91 percent of American voters believe that mayhem in the 
        media contributes to violence in real life.
            (5) On several occasions since 1975, The Journal of the 
        American Medical Association has alerted the medical community 
        to the adverse effects of televised violence on child 
        development, including an increase in the level of aggressive 
        behavior and violent behavior among children who view it.
            (6) The National Commission on Children recommended in 1991 
        that producers of television programs exercise greater 
        restraint in the content of programming for children.
            (7) A report of the Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation, 
        dated May 1993, indicates that there is an irrefutable 
        connection between the amount of violence depicted in the 
        television programs watched by children and increased 
        aggressive behavior among children.
            (8) It is in the National interest that parents be 
        empowered with the technology to block the viewing of 
        television programs whose content is overly violent or 
        objectionable for other reasons.
            (9) Technology currently exists to permit the manufacture 
        of television receivers that are capable of permitting parents 
        to block television programs having violent or otherwise 
        objectionable content.

SEC. 3. ESTABLISHMENT OF TELEVISION VIOLENCE RATING CODE.

    Section 303 of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 303) is 
amended by adding at the end the following:
    ``(v) Prescribe, in consultation with television broadcasters, 
cable operators, appropriate public interest groups, and interested 
individuals from the private sector, rules for rating the level of 
violence in television programming, including rules for the 
transmission by television broadcast systems and cable systems of 
signals containing specifications for blocking violent programming.''.

    Section 303 of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 303), as 
amended by section 3, is further amended by adding at the end the 
following:
    ``(w) Require, in the case of apparatus designed to receive 
television signals that are manufactured in the United States or

inches or greater in size (measured diagonally), that such apparatus--
            ``(1) be equipped with circuitry designed to enable viewers 
        to block the display of channels, programs, and time slots; and
            ``(2) enable viewers to block display of all programs with 
        a common rating.''.

SEC. 5. SHIPPING OR IMPORTING OF TELEVISIONS THAT BLOCK PROGRAMS.

    (a) Regulations.--Section 330 of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 
U.S.C. 330) is amended--
            (1) by redesignating subsection (c) as subsection (d); and
            (2) by adding after subsection (b) the following new 
        subsection (c):
    ``(c)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), no person shall ship 
in interstate commerce, manufacture, assemble, or import from any 
foreign country into the United States any apparatus described in 
section 303(w) of this Act except in accordance with rules prescribed 
by the Commission pursuant to the authority granted by that section.
    ``(2) This subsection shall not apply to carriers transporting 
apparatus referred to in paragraph (1) without trading it.
    ``(3) The rules prescribed by the Commission under this subsection 
shall provide performance standards for blocking technology. Such rules 
shall require that all such apparatus be able to receive the rating 
signals which have been transmitted by way of line 21 of the vertical 
blanking interval and which conform to the signal and blocking 
specifications established by the Commission.
    ``(4) As new video technology is developed, the Commission shall 
take such action as the Commission determines appropriate to ensure 
that blocking service continues to be available to consumers.''.
    (b) Conforming Amendment.--Section 330(d) of such Act, as 
redesignated by subsection (a)(1), is amended by striking ``section 
303(s), and section 303(u)'' and inserting in lieu thereof ``and 
sections 303(s), 303(u), and 303(w)''.

SEC. 6. ELIMINATION OF VIOLENT PROGRAMMING ON TELEVISION DURING CERTAIN 
              HOURS.

seq.) is amended by adding at the end the following:

                  ``prohibition on violent programming

        U.S.C. 522).
            ``(2) The term `programming' includes advertisements but

        interviews, bona fide news documentaries, and on-the-spot 
        coverage of bona fide news events.
            ``(3) The term `public telecommunications entity' has the 
        meaning given such term in section 397(12) of the 
        Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 397(12)).''.

Input: Consider Input: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Commercial Automotive Products 
Export Reform Act of 2012''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The economic and national security interests of the 
        United States are enhanced when--
                    (A) the United States military has affordable and 
                timely access to commercially-available automotive 
                products and technologies, including products and 
                technologies relating to safety, vehicle handling, and 
                fuel efficiency; and
                    (B) companies doing business in the United States 
                can freely export commercially-available automotive 
                products and technologies that would not make a 
                significant contribution to the military potential of 
                other countries, except to countries, organizations, 
                and individuals that are subject to United States trade 
                sanctions.
            (2) The economic and national security interests of the 
        United States are not advanced by export control regulations 
        that restrict the United States military's access to 
        commercially-available automotive products and technologies 
        that either--
                    (A) are widely available for use on non-military 
                automotive vehicles; or
                    (B) would not make a significant contribution to 
                the military potential of other countries.
            (3) Current and proposed United States export control 
        regulations result in unnecessary restrictions on commercially-
        available automotive products and technologies, including--
                    (A) the need to obtain a license from the 
                Department of State or Department of Commerce before 
                exporting commercially-available automotive products 
                and technologies if modified even in insignificant ways 
                for use on a military vehicle; and
                    (B) the need to obtain a license from the 
                Department of State or Department of Commerce before 
                placing the specifications for such products on a 
                computer system to which a foreign national worker has 
                access.
            (4) None of the multilateral export control regimes of 
        which the Unites States is a party requires the export 
        restrictions that currently apply to commercially-available 
        automotive products and technologies.
            (5) The unnecessary restrictions described in this section 
        limit the ability of the United States military to procure 
        commercially-available automotive products and technologies in 
        a timely and affordable manner, adversely affect the safety and 
        fuel economy of United States military vehicles, put the United 
        States military at a comparative disadvantage against its 
        adversaries, create barriers to job creation in the United 
        States, burden taxpayers unnecessarily with increased costs for 
        military vehicles and related parts and components, place 
        unnecessary regulatory burdens on United States companies, and 
        waste valuable licensing and enforcement resources on 
        controlling the exportation of militarily insignificant 
        products and technologies.
