BOISE — A bill meant to restrict minors’ access to drag shows and “sexual exhibitions” advanced to the House floor Wednesday.

The Christian-focused lobby group the Idaho Family Policy Center drafted House Bill 230, which allows parents or guardians of minors to file lawsuits for at least $5,000 if they feel their children were exposed to “sexual conduct.” The Idaho attorney general or county prosecutor could also file for injunctive relief to stop the action if they have "reason to believe" that the bill will be violated.
