A bill for an act relating to assaults, including assaults on persons engaged in certain occupations and inmate assaults on department of corrections employees, and providing penalties.

Increased penalties for assaulting protected persons from aggravated misdemeanor to class C felony when the perpetrator has intent to inflict serious injury or uses a dangerous weapon.

Maintained mandatory minimum seven-day sentence for spitting or saliva-related assaults against protected persons, with no eligibility for sentence suspension.

Added juvenile detention staff and department of inspections, appeals, and licensing employees to the list of protected occupations.

Created new Section 708.3B covering inmate assaults on correctional employees involving bodily fluids or intentional contact, making these class D felonies.

The document was converted from a signed governor's message format to the standard enrolled bill format, removing the governor's signature block and adding the official enrolled header.

Line numbers and page markers were added throughout the text to indicate the enrolled version's pagination structure.

Minor formatting adjustments were made to penalty classifications in subsections 1 and 2, where 'class felony' text was changed to 'class D C felony' in the enrolled version display.
