If enacted, this bill would introduce new prohibitions regarding the exposure of minors to sexually explicit materials by public entities and their contractors. Specifically, it would establish that no state agency, city, town, county, or political subdivision may expose minors to such materials, and it would also prohibit the use of facilities owned or managed by these entities for filming or facilitating sexually explicit acts. Violations of these provisions would be classified as a class 5 felony. Additionally, the bill would require individuals hired by these public entities after the effective date to sign an acknowledgment form confirming they have read the new statute.

The bill would also clarify definitions related to sexually explicit materials, including "sexual conduct," "sexual excitement," and "ultimate sexual acts." It would specify that the prohibitions do not apply to sexually explicit materials presented in court proceedings where a minor has a legal right or obligation to be present. Overall, the bill aims to strengthen protections for minors against exposure to sexually explicit content in public settings.
