Turn It Down Act

This bill would amend the CALM Act, a federal law that limits how loud TV commercials can be, so that it also covers video programming delivered over the internet. Within 18 months of the law taking effect, the Federal Communications Commission would have to issue a rule making ads that accompany internet-delivered video programming follow volume requirements substantially equivalent to those for broadcast TV, cable, and other pay-TV providers. The bill defines video programming as programming provided by, or comparable to, a TV broadcast station, and excludes consumer-generated media.
