Bill overview
This bill, the ‘Rush Was Right Act of 2023,’ aims to prevent the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) from bringing back the Fairness Doctrine. The Fairness Doctrine was a policy from the 1980s that required broadcasters to present opposing viewpoints on controversial issues. This legislation specifically prohibits the FCC from reinstating any similar requirement, ensuring broadcasters have more freedom in how they present information and opinions on public matters.
