New York Assembly Bill 1782: Prohibiting the Display or Advertisement of Material Deemed "Sexually Illicit" to Minors

New York A.B. 1782 would have barred the display, dissemination, or advertisement of any material that exploits, is devoted to, or is principally made up of descriptions or depictions of illicit sex or sexual immorality; is lewd, lascivious, or indecent; or consists of nude or partially nude figures posed or presented in a way that would provoke or arouse lust or passion or that would exploit sex, lust, or perversion for commercial gain.

Most recent news: Media Coalition sent New York Assembly members a memo in opposition to the bill, which did not pass in the 2009 legislative session.
