AI Summary
This bill amends and adds to existing Idaho law to prohibit schools and public libraries from promoting, giving, or making available to minors certain materials that depict nudity, sexual conduct, or sado-masochistic abuse and are considered harmful to minors. It provides a cause of action for minors or their parents/guardians against institutions that make such materials available, allowing for statutory damages and injunctive relief. It also allows county prosecutors and the state attorney general to seek injunctive relief against schools and libraries that violate the law. The bill defines key terms like "minor," "nudity," and "harmful to minors," and requires schools and libraries to have a policy and review process for materials considered harmful.
