Turn It Down Act

United States119th CongressHR-7308House of Representatives
Updated: Feb 2, 2026

Summary

This bill, titled the Turn It Down Act , seeks to expand the scope of the existing CALM Act by applying its commercial advertisement volume requirements to video programming delivered via internet protocol. It directs the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to develop and implement new regulations within 18 months of the bill's enactment. The primary objective is to ensure that commercial advertisements accompanying internet-delivered video content are subject to volume requirements substantially equivalent to those already in place for traditional television broadcast stations, cable operators, and other multichannel video programming distributors. This measure aims to prevent excessively loud commercials in online video, mirroring protections currently afforded to viewers of conventional television. The bill defines "video programming" as content comparable to that provided by a television broadcast station, specifically excluding consumer-generated media.
