GOP lawmakers push to expand porn ban to Interior, EPA

摘要

House Republicans are pushing to expand a ban on federal employees watching pornography while on the job to agencies like U.S. EPA and the Interior Department. Six lawmakers asked House Appropriations Chairman Hal Rogers (R-Ky.) and ranking member Nita Lowey (D-N.Y.) in a letter Thursday to expand the restriction on federal funds for government computer networks that fail to block porn viewing and sharing. Appropriators included the restriction in several divisions of last year's omnibus spending bill. However, the language didn't make it into all sections, leaving some agencies out.
