Didn't see the show, just live in the same city? You can sue a performer under SB 295, the drag ban. Unlimited damages, punitive and injunctive relief. Say no to #dragban #moleg

Just to highlight the absurdly broad language of SB 295, the drag ban bill, a performer reading aloud a Valentine's card, a love poem, or winking could trigger a prurient performance because they are characterized by "sexual desire" #moleg #dragban

Now, these provisions are bad enough, but SB 295 could cause bars and restaurants that host drag shows to be declared nuisances under RSMO 573.537, possibly shut down altogether. #moleg #dragban 5/x

One overlooked aspect of SB 295, the drag ban bill, is that it changes how bars and restaurants that host drag shows are zoned. These bars and restaurants could be stopped from selling liquor and could be forced to close by 12am. A 🧵 #moleg #dragban 1/x

The committee substitute for SB 295 has been published and it is amended to contain a civil cause of action for anyone viewing a performance to sue. This is a Heckler's Veto on Pride fests, gay bars, or transgender people just living their lives in public. #moleg #dragban

Missouri Senate committee, Judiciary & Civil & Criminal Jurisprudence just voted Do Pass on SB 295, the drag ban bill. Noteworthy, just before the vote, a committee substitute was offered and passed, language not published as of this writing. #dragban #moleg
