FACTSHEET: FCC Political Ad Disclosure Rule

The following press release was published by the U.S. Department of HCA on June 19, 2012. It is reproduced in full below.

On April 27th, The Federal Communications Commission approved a rule requiring TV broadcasters to put public ad disclosure documents online. These documents are currently only available as hard-copies in the station's files and require members of the public to travel to the stations and make copies. On June 5th, House Republicans released their Financial Services and General Government Appropriations bill for FY13. The bill contains a legislative rider blocking the FCC from implementing the new rule.
