Sixth Circuit Court Upholds Tennessee Law on Adult Performances
News summary

The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of a Tennessee law that prohibits sexualized adult performances, including some drag shows, in public spaces and around minors. Friends of George's, a Memphis-based theater group holding risqué drag shows, challenged the law but lacked standing to sue due to not being prosecuted under it. The court found that the law, aiming to prevent performances harmful to minors, aligns with the First Amendment. Tennessee's Attorney General praised the ruling, emphasizing the state's respect for free expression and the protection of minors from obscene material.
