INDECENCY AND OBSCENITY – Adds to existing law to prohibit a person from entering a restroom or changing room of the opposite sex, to provide a penalty, and to provide exceptions.

This Idaho bill (H 752) prohibits individuals from knowingly entering restrooms or changing rooms designated for the opposite biological sex in government buildings or public accommodations. It classifies a first violation as a misdemeanor (up to 1 year in jail) and a second violation within five years as a felony (up to 5 years in prison). Key exceptions include emergencies, custodial/maintenance work, medical assistance, using single-user facilities when necessary, and accompanying minors or individuals requiring assistance. The bill defines "changing room" broadly to include locker rooms and showers, and it would take effect on July 1, 2026.
