Help 1MM Stand Up For Parental Rights

If this content resonates with you, share your thoughts in the comments below.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has released a Public Notice seeking input on the "Television Parental Guidelines ratings system." This is a rare opportunity for parents, family advocates, and allied organizations to make our voices heard - and we urge you to join us.

Our good friends at Concerned Women for America approached One Million Moms to help, and I immediately said, “Yes, we are on board!” Both parental rights and accurate TV ratings are so important!

The FCC has issued a Public Notice inquiry focused on how the television ratings system can better serve parents in today’s media environment. This proceeding offers a timely opportunity to examine whether the current system - largely designed and administered by the entertainment industry itself - is actually delivering clear, accurate information that families need. The FCC has opened a public comment period to determine just how the ratings system can be reformed to provide more transparency and parental oversight. We must act now! The deadline for comments is May 22,2026.

Transparent content information should be shared with parents so families can make an informed decision on what their children are watching. When LGBTQ content is included in children’s programming without being identified and labeled, then parental rights are being taken away.

1MM has seen the same tactics in public schools with the transgender movement, where parents were excluded from decisions regarding transitioning a child’s sexual identity.

This is a critical moment to advocate for a ratings system that reflects today’s media realities and genuinely respects parental authority.

1MM urgently needs you to send a personal comment to the FCC, letting them know that the TV ratings have failed your family.
