Urges President and FCC to investigate NBC for potential FCC equal time rule violation on political programming.

This resolution urges the President and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to investigate the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) for a potential violation of FCC rules on equal opportunity broadcast time for political candidates. The resolution stems from NBC's airing of a comedy skit featuring presidential candidate Kamala Harris on Saturday Night Live (SNL) without providing equal airtime to her opponent, Donald J. Trump, three days before the 2024 presidential election.
