Summary

The measure defines "sensitive material" and generally bans it from classrooms, libraries and school events, unless specific exemptions apply. It creates a process for students, parents, staff, or board members to request a review, limits the number of unsuccessful challenges, and allows arbitration of related claims. The ban cannot be enforced when it would conflict with the U.S. or Utah constitutions.
