AI Summary

This bill, titled the "Prohibition on Government Sponsored Sexual Performances Act," establishes comprehensive restrictions on live adult performances in public spaces. The legislation defines "live adult performance" broadly, including performances involving nudity, semi-nudity, simulated sexual acts, or entertainment featuring dancers, strippers, or impersonators that might appeal to those under 18. Specifically, the bill prohibits local governments and school districts from allowing such performances on publicly owned or operated property. As a significant enforcement mechanism, the state is required to immediately halt all funding to any unit of local government or school district found in violation of these provisions. Additionally, the bill limits home rule powers by preventing local units from creating regulations that conflict with the act's mandates. The definitions of nudity and semi-nudity are extremely detailed, specifying precise standards for clothing coverage of body parts. The bill appears designed to restrict potentially sexually explicit performances in public spaces, with a particular focus on preventing such performances from occurring in government-controlled venues or being accessible to minors.
