  • An Oklahoma GOP lawmaker is proposing a bill that would make sexting illegal unless you're married.
  • The bill, if passed, would target those involved in "unlawful pornography" with harsh punishments.
  • It's part of a wider trend of Republicans pushing anti-porn laws across the US.

Oklahoma's senate is set to consider a bill that would make it illegal to send nudes before marriage.

Oklahoma Senate Bill 1976, pre-filed by Republican State Sen. Dusty Deevers ahead of its planned formal introduction on February 5, primarily targets child pornography, though a section of it prohibits other forms of "unlawful pornography."
