April 30, 2021

TO:	Honorable Senfronia Thompson, Chair, House Committee on Licensing & Administrative Procedures
FROM:	Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	SB766 by Huffman (Relating to sexually oriented businesses, including a requirement to participate in the federal electronic verification of employment authorization program, or E-verify, and restricting the age of persons employed by or allowed on the premises; creating criminal offenses.), As Engrossed

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

It is assumed that the costs associated with the bill's provisions relating to requiring sexually oriented businesses to participate in the federal electronic verification of employment authorization program, or E-verify; creating a criminal offense could be absorbed using existing resources.

This analysis assumes implementing the provisions of the bill addressing felony sanctions for criminal offenses would not result in a significant impact on state correctional agencies.

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
