AI Summary
This bill:
Increases the minimum age for marriage from 15 to 16 years, modifies the sex offender registry system by categorizing offenders into three tiers with different registration requirements, and eliminates the statute of limitations for sexual offenses committed against minors. The bill also provides a process for offenders to petition the court to be removed from the sex offender registry if they meet certain criteria.
