Fighting Harsh Adult
    Entertainment Regulations

The Free Speech Coalition (FSC) and the Association of Club Executives (ACE) members are mobilizing to fight a state bill (SB 32) which proposes a wide range of harsh adult entertainment regulations. The bill is currently on a fast track through the Missouri Senate, headed for a Judiciary Committee hearing.

Among the numerous provisions in this bill Is a “sin” tax requiring adult businesses to pay a $5 admission tax for each person entering the business, the funds to be deposited into the “State Schools Money Fund."

The bill also creates a 20% sales tax for adult businesses. SB 32 requires employees to be over 21. It bans exhibition of sexually explicit videos and live entertainment in viewing rooms. The bill prohibits nudity. Semi-nudity is allowed only if a person is an employee who does not touch customers and remains a specified distance away from patrons and behind a railing.

Under the bill, all adult business must close between 10 PM and 10 AM and no adult business can sell liquor. Free Speech Coalition member Dick Snow asks for assistance in notifying Missouri adult businesses of this threat and urging them to get involved in this critical legislative fight.
