Two House Judiciary Republicans formally introduced their five-year Satellite Television Extension and Localism Act reauthorization legislation Wednesday, said a committee news release (http://1.usa.gov/1oI0PJT). The committee had earlier this week announced a markup of this legislation, now with the number of HR-5036, to take place Thursday at 10 a.m. in 2141 Rayburn. Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., and IP Subcommittee Chairman Howard Coble, R-N.C., issued statements backing its passage and stressing the need for reauthorization. The bill is a clean reauthorization that does not include any revamps to video marketplace rules. Top committee Democrats did not comment on the bill.
