Bill > HR5117

This bill, known as the "Stopping Propaganda Indoctrination Nationally Act" (SPIN Act), proposes to amend the United States Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 by restricting the dissemination of certain government-produced informational content within the United States, its territories, and possessions. Specifically, the bill would modify existing law to limit access to such information, allowing it to be examined only under controlled circumstances: it would be available in English at the Department of State for viewing by press association representatives, newspaper and radio journalists, research students, scholars, and Members of Congress upon request, but would prohibit broader public distribution. The key change is that while the information would still be created and distributed internationally, it would be significantly restricted from general circulation within the United States, effectively creating a form of controlled access to government-produced informational materials that were previously more freely available.
