       (b) United States Sentencing Commission.--
       (1) Directive.--Pursuant to its authority under section 
     994(p) of title 28, United States Code, and in accordance 
     with this section, the United States Sentencing Commission 
     shall review and, as appropriate, amend the sentencing 
     guidelines and policy statements to provide appropriate 
     penalties for violations of section 1037 of title 18, United 
     States Code, as added by this section, and other offenses 
     that may be facilitated by the sending of large quantities of 
     unsolicited electronic mail.

     Sentencing Commission shall consider providing sentencing 
     enhancements for--
       (A) those convicted under section 1037 of title 18, United 
     States Code, who--
       (i) obtained electronic mail addresses through improper 
     means, including--
       (I) harvesting electronic mail addresses of the users of a

       (d) Requirement To Place Warning Labels on Commercial 
     Electronic Mail Containing Sexually Oriented Material.--
       (1) In general.--No person may initiate in or affecting 
     interstate commerce the transmission, to a protected 
     computer, of any unsolicited commercial electronic mail 
     message that includes sexually oriented material and--
       (A) fail to include in subject heading for the electronic 
     mail message the marks or notices prescribed by the 
     Commission under this subsection; or
       (B) fail to provide that the matter in the message that is 
     initially viewable to the recipient, when the message is 
     opened by any recipient and absent any further actions by the 
     recipient, includes only--
       (i) to the extent required or authorized pursuant to 
     paragraph (2), any such marks or notices;
       (ii) the information required to be included in the message 
     pursuant to subsection (a)(5); and
       (iii) instructions on how to access, or a mechanism to 
     access, the sexually oriented material.
       (2) Prescription of marks and notices.--Not later than 120 
     days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the 
     Commission in consultation with the Attorney General shall 
     prescribe clearly identifiable marks or notices to be 
     included in or associated with unsolicited commercial 
     electronic mail that contains sexually oriented material, in 
     order to inform the recipient of that fact and to facilitate 
     filtering of such electronic mail. The Commission shall 
     publish in the Federal Register and provide notice to the 
     public of the marks or notices prescribed under this 
     paragraph.
       (3) Definition.--In this subsection, the term ``sexually 
     oriented material'' means any material that depicts sexually 
     explicit conduct (as that term is defined in section 2256 of 
     title 18, United States Code), unless the depiction 
     constitutes a small and insignificant part of the whole, the 
     remainder of which is not primarily devoted to sexual 
     matters.
       (4) Penalty.--A violation of paragraph (1) is punishable as 
     if it were a violation of section 1037(a) of title 18, United

  SA 1895. Mr. HARKIN proposed an amendment to the bill S. 877, to 
regulate interstate commerce by imposing limitations and penalties on 
the transmission of unsolicited commercial electronic mail via the 
Internet; as follows:

       At the appropriate place add the following:

     SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

       This title may be cited as the ``Training for Realtime 
     Writers Act of 2003''.

     SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

       Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) As directed by Congress in section 723 of the 
     Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 613), as added by 
     section 305 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (Public Law 
     104-104; 110 Stat. 126), the Federal Communications 
     Commission adopted rules requiring closed captioning of most 
     television programming, which gradually require new video 
     programming to be fully captioned beginning in 2006.
       (2) More than 28,000,000 Americans, or 8 percent of the 
     population, are considered deaf or hard of hearing, and many 
     require captioning services to participate in mainstream 
     activities.
       (3) More than 24,000 children are born in the United States 
     each year with some form of hearing loss.
       (4) According to the Department of Health and Human 
     Services and a study done by the National Council on Aging--
       (A) 25 percent of Americans over 65 years old are hearing 
     impaired;
       (B) 33 percent of Americans over 70 years old are hearing 
     impaired; and
       (C) 41 percent of Americans over 75 years old are hearing 
     impaired.
       (5) The National Council on Aging study also found that 
     depression in older adults may be directly related to hearing 
     loss and disconnection with the spoken word.
       (6) Empirical research demonstrates that captions improve 
     the performance of individuals learning to read English and, 
     according to numerous Federal agency statistics, could 
     benefit--
       (A) 3,700,000 remedial readers;
       (B) 12,000,000 young children learning to read;
       (C) 27,000,000 illiterate adults; and
       (D) 30,000,000 people for whom English is a second 
     language.
       (7) Over the past 5 years, student enrollment in programs 
     that train court reporters to become realtime writers has 
     decreased significantly, causing such programs to close on 
     many campuses.
