This week, the House is expected to vote overwhelmingly in favor of the Broadcast Decency Enforcement Act of 2005. The new legislation, already approved by the House Commerce Committee on a 46-2 vote, would significantly raise the dollar amount of indecency fines levied on broadcasters and performers from $32,000 per violation to $500,000.

Performers now also face a fine hike to $500,000 per indecent broadcast, up from $11,000. The new rules will also do away with warnings handed out for a performer's first offense.
