This bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 129D.17, by adding a new subdivision that outlines prohibited uses of funds from the arts and cultural heritage fund. Specifically, it states that money appropriated from this fund cannot be used for activities associated with the occult, divination, necromancy, soothsaying, Satanism, demonology, or pedophilia.

The addition of this subdivision aims to ensure that public funds allocated for arts and cultural heritage are not utilized for purposes deemed inappropriate or harmful. This legislative change reflects a commitment to maintaining the integrity of the arts and cultural heritage initiatives in Minnesota.
