I am not sure it is legislators job to censor free speech?
And if they passed such a law and it was somehow constitutional, it would then be the president's job to enforce it, so they are very much in the same boat wouldn't they?
The current movie (and TV and music) censorship regimes are all based on an agreement between producers that they will not produce/distribute etc material that is legal but "bad" and in exchange the government will take no action against them like tax hikes etc.
This is how the US has handled all sorts of "censorship that's not technically censorship" since day 1. The actions here seem to be basically the same thing but in our era it's social media not rap music or sitcoms.
