AI Summary
This bill amends existing Florida law to prohibit the employment of persons younger than 21 years of age in adult entertainment establishments. It defines "adult entertainment establishment" and "nude", and establishes criminal penalties for knowingly employing or permitting someone under 21 to work at such an establishment, with harsher penalties if the person is employed while nude. The bill also requires adult entertainment establishments to check the identification of entertainers and workers to verify they are 21 or older.
