Idaho governor signs bill criminalizing public breast exposure and ‘truck nuts’
Hey, it's a crazy day politically, with lots of clowns and clown cars. Not, to make you feel like you really went to the circus, here's news from modern day Idaho.
Idaho Gov. Brad Little signed into law a bill that criminalizes the public exposure of breasts.
House Bill 270 updates Idaho’s indecent exposure law, which already bans public exposure of genitals, to include female breasts, male breasts altered to look like female breasts, artificial breasts and toys or products that resemble genitals.
Breastfeeding is exempt.
The bill takes effect immediately — through an emergency clause. Little signed the bill Wednesday, according to the governor’s office legislation tracker.
Supporters say the bill will protect decency and modernize Idaho’s indecent exposure law. Opponents say it could unduly punish transgender Idahoans and males experiencing hormonal conditions that enlarge breasts.
The Republican-supermajority controlled Legislature widely passed the bill, with support from 87 Republican state lawmakers and opposition from 14 Democratic state lawmakers.
