Concerns about Potential Censorship in Senate Bill 1125

The proposed Arizona Senate Bill 1125, currently under consideration in the House RULES and JUD Committees, raises significant concerns about potential censorship. The bill's broad and ambiguous definitions of "obscene" or "harmful to minors" content could inadvertently target and restrict access to queer and trans media/material. This could lead to the removal of such content or the imposition of age verification methods, which may limit the accessibility of these resources for those who need them most. It is crucial to ensure that legislation does not inadvertently suppress diverse voices and perspectives. Therefore, it is requested that this bill be reconsidered to avoid potential censorship and to uphold the principle of inclusivity.
