American Act"). 
(b) 
PURCHASE OF AMERICAN-MADE EQUIPMENT AND PROD-
UCTS.— 
(1) IN GENERAL.—In the case of any equipment or product 
that may be authorized to be purchased with financial assist-
ance provided under this Act, it is the sense of the Congress 
that entities receiving the assistance should, in expending the 
assistance, purchase only American-made equipment and prod-
ucts. 
(2) NOTICE TO RECIPIENTS OF ASSISTANCE.—In providing 
financial assistance under this Act, the Secretary shall provide 
to each recipient of the assistence a notice describing the stete-
ment made in paragraph (1) by the Congress. 
SEC. 320. CORPORATE RESPONSIBIUTY. 
(a) FINDINGS.—The Senate finds that— 
(1) the National Commission on Children report stetes 
that "The news and the entertainment media have tremendous 
potential to educate children and expose them to other cultures 
and new ideas'* and recommends "that the recording industry 
continue and enhance its efforts to avoid the distribution of 
inappropriate materials to children"; 
(2) the National Commission on Children report states 
that "In a free society, there will always be tension between 
freedom of expression and upholding common social values. 
Censorship is the antithesis of what we embrace. Forging com-
mon values will never depend solely on laws, but also on 
persuasion and example. Success will require thoughtful action 
and self-restraint by individuals and major institutions with 
the ability or potential to influence children's moral develop-
ment, "niis makes the tesk of parents, public leaders, educators.

media executives, entertainers, and advertisers more difficult, 
but no less important."; 
(3) the Carnegie Coimcil on Adolescent Development's 
executive summary of its publication Fateful Choices: Healthy 
Youth for the 21st Century states that, "The news and enter-
tainment media are significant influences on the attitudes and 
behavior of young adolescents . . . . Great efforts, short of 
censorship, should be made to purge the media, particularly 
television and rock music programs, of their orgv of mindless 
violence . . . The news and entertainment media should be 
enlisted in efforts to promote health, to reduce substance abuse, 
violence, irresponsible sexual behavior, and to provide a better 
imderstanding of sound nutrition and physical exercise."; 
(4) the Massmutual American Family Values Program 1991 
study states "Parents are challenged by the entertainment 
industry. While three out of four respondents think parents 
should be the primary influences on children, 68 percent think 
television, movies, rock music and videos are the biggest influ-
ence on developing children's values. While parents imderstand 
their own responsibility in teaching family values, a significant 
number indicated that the entertainment media could help 
by providing better role models for both parents and children. ; 
(5) in the June 1992 Journal of the American Medical 
Association article "Television and Violence", the author. Dr. 
Brandon S. Centerwall, states, "In a recent meta-analysis of 
randomized, case-control, short-term studies, exposure to media 
violence caused, on the average, a significant increase in chil-
dren's aggressiveness as measured by observation of their 
spontaneous, natural behavior following exposure.". 
(b) DECLARATIONS.—The S e n a t e -
CD supports the concept that corporate America and the 
officials of all American institutions can and should contribute 
positively to individual thought and conduct as key contributors 
to a healthy, responsible society and individual human dignity; 
(2) believes that corporate and institutional entities, their 
management and stockholders, as well as their advertisers 
and 
sponsors, should exercise positive and 
constructive 
oversight of their activities without the sole test of their con-
tributions based on profits, sales, and publicity; 
(3) strongly believes that corporate America and the 
officials of all American institutions weaken the moral fiber 
of the Nation by hiding behind the faceless masks of such 
corporations and institutions in a relentless search for profits, 
sales and publicity without regard to the moral content of 
their products and services; 
(4) believes that the exercise of citizenship encompasses 
individual and community actions to promote responsible 
behavior and values; and 
(5) strongly encourages the officers, employees, and share-
holders of all American corporations and institutions to insist 
upon the acceptance of personal responsibility for the moral 
flavor, content and repercussions of the activities, products 
and services of their corporations and institutions.
