CURRENT BILL SUMMARY
SCS/SBs 1164 & 1476 - This act modifies provisions relating to adult cabaret performances.
ADULT CABARET PERFORMANCE DEFINITION (67.2540)
This act defines "adult cabaret performance" in regards to provisions relating to restrictions on sexually oriented businesses.
SEXUALLY ORIENTED BILLBOARDS (226.531)
This act adds the definition of "adult cabaret performance" in regards to sexually oriented billboards. The definition of "sexually oriented business" is modified to include any business that offers an adult cabaret performance.
CIVIL ACTIONS FOR ADULT CABARET PERFORMANCES (SECTION 537.048)
This act establishes a civil action brought by a resident of a city, town, or village where an adult cabaret performance is conducted against an adult cabaret performer whose adult cabaret performance contains actions or material that, proven by a preponderance of the evidence, appeal to a prurient interest in sex and occur on public property or in a location that could be viewed by a person under the age of 18. The court may award damages or injunctive relief as it deems appropriate, but no damages, except for nominal damages, shall be awarded in more than one action arising out of a single occurrence.
This provision is identical to a provision in SCS/SB 295 (2025) and in SCS/HCS/HB 1464 (2025).
OFFENSE OF ENGAGING IN AN ADULT CABARET (SECTION 573.010 & 573.520)
This act creates the offense of engaging in an adult cabaret performance if such performance is on public property or in a location where the performance could be viewed by a person who is not an adult.
Such offense shall be a class A misdemeanor for the first offense and a class E felony for any subsequent offense.
These provisions are identical to provisions in SCS/SB 295 (2025), are substantially similar to provisions in SB 764 (2025) and in SCS/HCS/SB 1464 (2025), and are similar to provisions in HB 722 (2025), SB 949 (2024), in HB 1650 (2024), in HB 1849 (2024), in HB 2300 (2024), in HCS/HB 494 (2023), and SB 693 (2023).
