The bill proposes the addition of a new section, 8.218, to chapter 8 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri, which establishes regulations regarding the conduct of the public within the capitol building. It specifically prohibits individuals from willfully or knowingly impeding, disrupting, or disturbing the orderly conduct of official business. The prohibited actions include entering or remaining in designated areas of the capitol, using loud or threatening language, engaging in disorderly conduct, obstructing passage, or committing acts of physical violence. Violations of these provisions are classified as misdemeanors, with a first offense being a class C misdemeanor and subsequent offenses escalating to a class B misdemeanor. The bill also clarifies that these regulations do not apply to actions taken by members of the general assembly or their employees while performing their official duties.
