AI Summary
This bill modifies the definition of "sexual orientation" within the Minnesota Human Rights Act, which is a state law designed to protect individuals from discrimination. Specifically, it clarifies that the term "sexual orientation" refers to a person's emotional, physical, or sexual attraction to others based on their sex or gender identity, and that this attraction can be to men, women, both, neither, or individuals with other gender identities. The key change is the addition of language stating that sexual orientation does not include a physical or sexual attraction to children by an adult, thereby explicitly excluding such attractions from the protected definition.
