Clinton Files Game Legislation

GamePolitics is reporting that Senator Clinton has formally filed game legislation. The bill, likely not to be discussed until the Senate returns from Holiday break, is co-sponsored by Senator Lieberman. From the article: "The Senators emphasized that their legislation will put teeth in the enforcement of video game ratings, helping parents protect their children from inappropriate content. They were joined in making the announcement by April DeLaney, Director of the Washington Office for Common Sense Media; Norman Rosenberg, President and CEO of Parents Action for Children and Dr. Michael Rich, Director of the Center on Media and Child Health at Children's Hospital in Boston and Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School, in a show of support for the legislation. "

Don't Senators watch PBS?

Maybe someone should send the good Senators Professor Jenkin's study debunking the myth that video games cause children to become aggressive homicidal sociopaths as mentioned here on Tuesday.

Better yet, why doesn't everone send them it.

While you're at it, why not contact your Senators and tell them to oppose the bill.
