HB181 (Captioning of Educational
Videos)
Perfected by the House
Good news! HCS HB 181 was
discussed on the floor of the House
yesterday. At the request of MCDHH, Representative Therese Sander
of Moberly offered an amendment that would put back in the bill
enforcement language that had been deleted by the House Higher
Education Committee. The amendment was accepted and HCS HB 181
as amended was perfected and ordered printed. So now the only
difference between HCS HB 181 as perfected and the original HB 181
is that manufacturers of non-captioned educational videos would be liable
for only three times the cost of adding captions rather than ten times the
cost, a minor difference that does not affect the substance of the bill. We
will keep you posted regarding the progress of this bill.
