Dusty Deevers, R-Elgin, has introduced SB593 in Oklahoma. The bill, if passed, would add "criminal penalties of up to 10 years in prison for production, distribution, or possession" of all pornography in general, and 10-30 year penalties for "organized pornography trafficking." To try and make it more likely to pass, he has tacked it onto a bill to increase child pornography penalties.

Will Oklahoma pass this bill (or any other bill that would make production, distribution, and/or possession of porn a crime) in Oklahoma by the end of 2025?
