STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS30745 / S1213
This proposed legislation seeks to amend Title 6 by adding a new Chapter 36, Title 6 Idaho Code and deals with
protection of minors from sexual exhibitions. More specifically it deals with live, in person shows, exhibitions,
or performances before an audience in any public place, or in any place exposed to public view. The intent
is applicable whether an admission fee is charged or not. Reasonable steps must be taken to restrict access to
minors subject to certain criteria found in the Miller test. It further provides for a cause of action to be brought
be the Attorney General’s office and for the monetary recovery of damages. Use of public facilities and public
assets for sexual exhibitions are also prohibited.
FISCAL NOTE
There is no anticipated fiscal impact to the State or general fund because it requires no expenditures of State
funds.
