Montana House Passes Bill That Would Ban Minors From Attending Drag Shows
2023-02-26
Now it just needs to pass the Montana Senate and get signed by the governor. What are the odds of success?
[GatewayPundit] “A sexually oriented business may not allow a person under 18 years of age to enter the premises of the business during a live nude performance or drag performance," the bill states. "The owner, operator, manager, or employee of a sexually oriented business who is convicted of violating this section shall be fined not less than $1,000 or more than $5,000 for the first offense, not less than $2,500 or more than $5,000 for the second offense, and for third and subsequent offenses be fined $10,000 and, if applicable, the county or municipality shall revoke the business license held by the offender."

The Daily Montanan reports that "as of Thursday morning, 149 constituents had messaged legislators in support of the bill and 270 constituents had sent messages in opposition. Opponents outweighed supporters when the bill was heard in the House Judiciary Committee earlier this month."
