Banning Sexually Explicit Material in Schools and Withholding Federal Funding.
This bill imposes significant fines on publishing houses that knowingly supply schools with sexually explicit visual materials. Crucially, schools and educational agencies that obtain or distribute such materials will lose access to federal funding until the materials are removed or destroyed. This aims to restrict specific content in educational settings, though materials with serious literary or scientific value are exempt.
Key points
Publishing houses supplying sexually explicit materials to schools face fines up to $500,000 and potential imprisonment for executives.
Elementary and secondary schools obtaining these materials will lose federal funding until the materials are relinquished or destroyed.
The restrictions do not apply to materials deemed to have serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value.
