Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) is seeking to advance legislation that would ban the Pentagon from supporting Hollywood studios that censor their films for screening in China, or that otherwise cater to the Chinese Communist Party.
Cruz said the aim of his bill, called the “Stopping Censorship, Restoring Integrity, Protecting Talkies” (SCRIPT) Act (pdf), is to cut off the influence that China’s Communist regime exerts on American perceptions through movies.
