KS House Bill on Strip Clubs Bans Lap Dances

Members of a Kansas House committee are considering a bill known as the Community Defense Act. The measure would put new restrictions on what can take place in strip clubs and where they can be located. Phillip Cosby is with the American Family Association of Kansas and Missouri. He told the Federal and State Affairs Committee that when adult businesses open, they are often accompanied by a host of problems.


Philip Bradley represents some Kansas owners of adult clubs. He says Cosby's claims about the problems caused by adult businesses haven't actually been proven.


Hearings on the bill will continue tomorrow (FRI).
