Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has signed into law new legislation aimed at limiting children’s exposure to drag events or other sexual performances on public property or businesses across the state.

Senate Bill 12 (pdf) restricts certain “sexually oriented performances” from taking place on public property, on the premises of a commercial enterprise, or in the presence of individuals under the age of 18.
