Obscenity Laws

Obscenity Laws: How obscenity affects our children, our schools and our communities

Obscenity is handled like slander and libel as speech that is NOT protected by the first amendment of
our U.S. Constitution. However, the Obscenity Exemption Statue (OES) passed in the 1970’s protects school employees who give damaging, pornographic materials to children in 43 of our 50 states!

It’s Perfectly Normal is just one example of the materials allowed in our schools. Every child deserves a safe environment to learn and grow. Under the obscenity loopholes, every student is a potential victim.

Please check periodically for updates on articles, legislation and action items.
