A resolution amending the broadcasting and recording procedures of the Senate.

Summary

This resolution amends the Senate floor broadcasting and recording procedures. Specifically, the resolution applies the existing television and radio procedures more broadly to broadcasting and recording. The resolution also removes references to the original broadcast pilot program. Among other things, the resolution generally maintains the requirements that broadcast coverage and recordings provide continuous, gavel-to-gavel coverage of Senate floor proceedings; video broadcast coverage follows the individuals who are speaking, except during roll call votes, when the cameras must show the entire chamber; the Committee on Rules and Administration provide oversight for broadcast coverage and recordings of Senate proceedings; the Senate Recording Studio administers the recording of coverage, under the direction of the Sergeant at Arms and Doorkeeper of the Senate; broadcast coverage be available on a live basis and free of charge for news-gathering, educational, or information distribution entities; and the use of recorded footage for political campaign purposes is prohibited.
