On Monday the Senate Judiciary Committee passed a bill addressing sexual indecency with a minor in public changing areas.
S.B. 270 by Sen. John Payton (R – Wilburn) and Rep. Cindy Crawford (R – Fort Smith) clarifies that an adult commits sexual indecency if the adult enters and remains in a changing area where a child of the opposite sex is present.
It’s a good bill that will help protect children in Arkansas, and Family Council is pleased to be able to work with lawmakers to support this measure.
S.B. 270 now goes to the entire Senate for consideration.
