                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
   Expressing the sense of the Congress that the Children's Internet 
  Protection Act is constitutional as it applies to public libraries.

Whereas the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) simply regulates the time, 
        place and manner of speech in a reasonable way;
Whereas the Children's Internet Protection Act regulates one medium, Internet 
        access in public libraries, for the delivery of speech, but does not 
        limit the speech itself; and
Whereas the Children's Internet Protection Act is needed to protect young people 
        from receiving harmful material in public libraries via the Internet: 
        Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That it is the sense of the Congress that the Children's Internet 
Protection Act is constitutional as it applies to public libraries.
