The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 609.33, to expand the definition of "disorderly house" and introduce new terms related to public safety. It removes the previous definition of "disorderly house" and replaces it with a more comprehensive definition that includes not only habitual violations related to the sale of intoxicating liquor, gambling, prostitution, and controlled substances, but also encompasses any commercial establishment where high-risk sexual conduct occurs with the knowledge of the owner, landlord, or manager.

Additionally, the bill introduces a new definition for "high-risk sexual conduct," which refers to sexual activities that pose a risk of spreading sexually transmitted or other communicable diseases due to bodily fluid exchange. The effective date for these changes is set for August 1, 2026, and they will apply to crimes committed on or after that date.
