[House Passes Indecency Bill]

Raises maximum fine against a broadcast license-holder from $27,500 to $500,000.
--Increases maximum fine against a performer from $11,000 to $500,000 and allows the Federal Communications Commission to impose the penalty after the first offense. Under current rules, the FCC must wait for a second offense

Exactly 19 congressmen voted against this bill. 1 GOP and 18 DEMS.
