Summary

Minnesota House Rep. Samantha Sencer-Mura proposed amending the state's law to exclude exposed breasts from being considered indecent exposure, citing an unjust 90-day jail sentence for a woman. Sencer-Mura hopes her proposal will spark a broader conversation about societal shifts in gender identity, while addressing concerns about assumptions made by law enforcement regarding gender identity.
