The proposed bill enacts the Uniform Public Expression Protection Act, which establishes a special motion for expedited relief in civil actions related to the exercise of First Amendment rights, including freedom of speech, press, assembly, and association. It allows parties to file a motion to dismiss a cause of action within 60 days of being served, with the possibility of extending this timeframe for good cause. The bill outlines that upon filing this motion, all other proceedings between the parties are stayed, and a hearing must occur within 60 days unless otherwise ordered by the court. The court is required to rule on the motion within 60 days after the hearing.

The bill specifies that it does not apply to actions against governmental units or their employees acting in an official capacity, nor to those primarily engaged in selling goods or services if the action arises from communications related to those sales. It also defines key terms, such as "goods or services" and "governmental unit," and provides for the awarding of costs and attorney fees to the prevailing party in the motion. The Act aims to promote uniformity in the application of laws regarding public expression across states.
