Sen Rockefeller reintroduces bill to study video game violence

Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) introduced legislation that would require the National Academy of Sciences to study the impact of violent video games and other content on children. He introduced the same bill at the end of the last Congress, but there wasn't enough time for a floor vote. This time, his bill has bipartisan support from Sens. Mike Johanns (R-NE), Dean Heller (R-NE), Tom Coburn (R-OK) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT). Sen Rockefeller said the bill would lay the groundwork for Congress to consider new regulations of violent entertainment content.
