Bill To Tax Violent Video Games

State Representative Robert Nardolillo is proposing a ten-percent tax on video games rated "M" or higher.  The revenue generated would be used to increase mental health counseling and conflict resolution activities in schools.  The Coventry Republican says there's evidence that children exposed to violent video games at a young age tend to act more aggressively.  Nardolillo says the goal of his bill is to make every school in Rhode Island a safe and calm place for learning.
