Prohibiting Federal Funding for Films Altered for Chinese Censorship
This act aims to prevent the use of federal funds for the production of films by U.S. companies that alter political content to comply with Chinese censorship requirements. This means that companies seeking U.S. government support will not be able to censor their productions or collaborate with Chinese entities that impose such conditions. The goal is to protect freedom of expression in American film productions.
Key points
U.S. film companies will not receive federal support if they alter the political content of their films at the request of Chinese authorities.
