The resolution calls for the Legislative Management of North Dakota to conduct a study on the harmful effects of pornography. It highlights the widespread availability of sexually explicit content and the potential risks it poses, particularly to children, who may experience negative outcomes such as low self-esteem, body image issues, and unhealthy sexual expectations. The resolution also points out the role of the adult entertainment industry in perpetuating harmful stereotypes and contributing to serious societal problems, including sex trafficking and sexual abuse.

The study proposed in the resolution aims to evaluate current educational and preventive measures regarding pornography, explore potential policy changes, and gather input from relevant state agencies and stakeholders. The findings and recommendations from this study, along with any necessary legislation, are to be reported to the Seventieth Legislative Assembly, emphasizing the importance of addressing the detrimental impacts of pornography on society.
