H.R.9067

To amend the Communications Act of 1934 to provide for a gender identity content descriptor for video programming, and for other purposes.

Introduced·5/29/26

Amends the Communications Act of 1934 to require a gender identity content descriptor for video programming.

The bill amends the Communications Act of 1934 to mandate the Federal Communications Commission to establish a content descriptor for video programming that depicts, discusses, or promotes gender identity, gender transition, transgender identity, or non-binary identity. This requirement applies if the TV Parental Guidelines do not already include such a descriptor and it is consistently transmitted with the rating for video programming marketed to children. The bill ensures that the content descriptor can be used with parental-control technologies.
