..."The language of this legislation is so broad that it sweeps any public or private place into this regulation," said Holly Dickson, executive director of the ACLU of Arkansas. “So one's own home would be subject to the restrictions of this bill."
Republican Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders has not said whether she would sign the restrictions into law if it reaches her desk. Sanders has said she would support legislation similar to Florida's law banning instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through the third grade.
“The governor believes that in Arkansas we will educate, not indoctrinate, our kids and is monitoring bills as they go through the legislative process and will review the final legislation," spokeswoman Alexa Henning said in an email when asked about the drag show bill."
