AI Summary

This bill, titled "Protecting minors from exposure to indecent displays of sexually explicit nature," aims to strengthen existing laws by expanding the definition of indecent exposure and unlawful admission of minors to certain venues. It specifically includes "transvestite and/or transgender performances or displays" as prohibited content when exposed to minors, and increases penalties for violations, such as longer jail times and higher fines for indecent exposure and admitting minors to venues with sexually explicit content. The bill also clarifies definitions related to "graphic" depictions and "identifiable minors" in the context of sexually explicit material, and introduces provisions for awarding attorney fees to prevailing parties in suits to enjoin nuisances.
