This bill is a copycat of Louisiana’s age verification law with a couple of additions: Adult sites would have to register with Alabama and pay a one-time registration fee and an annual license fee each year thereafter. The Alabama Attorney General can prosecute sites that do not comply, fining them up to $2,000 per violation. Becomes effective on the first day of the third month following its passage and approval by the Governor, or its otherwise becoming law.
