Stops the U.S. government from helping make or fund films that are influenced by the Chinese government. To receive State Department support or access to its assets, a U.S. film company must list any films it has submitted to Chinese officials in the past 10 years (or since enactment), and sign a written promise not to change content because of requests from the People’s Republic of China (PRC) or the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
The President and federal agencies may not provide support or contracts for films co‑produced with PRC entities when content is conditioned by the PRC/CCP, or for companies the Secretary of State identifies as having altered content due to PRC/CCP pressure. The Secretary must report to Congress within 180 days and then yearly with required details on compliance and actions taken.
