So I just got back from the FSC meeting...

So, post you questyion if you are curious about anything.

What is the proposed duration of the 2257 re-write in the house? 2 years? 4 years? or more?

Does the re-write include literature? I heard about an attempt to ban anything even "simulated" to be under 18. I suppose some bottom feeder will eventually attempt to ban even words|shocking|

Is there a consensus as to the proposed remedy for our current predicament? previous rulings that may shed light on the matter?

Who knows...this is the goverment...there is a lot of beuracratic shit involved, so it could take forever. I think they have gone way overboard and this could be the downfall of the law in the end. Especially if Hollywood gets involved, becasue the 2257 would be thier problem as well.

Would $100s of millions of dollars do it.

"The 2257 provision also has ramifications beyond the artistic as a federal tax provision designed to stem runaway production is unavailable to anyone required to register a 2257. Many state incentives designed to entice filmmakers to shoot on location also contain similar language."
