For years, bottle clubs have been completely unregulated. These clubs have allowed minors in but prohibited law enforcement from entering. They have featured fully nude dancing, and patrons are even allowed to make physical contact with the dancers in sexually intimate areas. These policies raise serious concerns about sexual exploitation and sex trafficking that Nebraska lawmakers will not ignore. Senator Thibodeau, Senator Pansing-Brooks, and Senator Geist fought for this reform amidst threats and intimidation from bottle clubs. We applaud their efforts to protect the integrity of our state laws and vulnerable women at risk of sexual exploitation. For too long, clubs have taken advantage of the bottle club loophole to avoid common sense regulations of similar businesses such as nightclubs and bars. This change will ensure these clubs are accountable to the state under the Nebraska Liquor Control Act and law enforcement will have the proper authority to ensure these laws are followed.

It should be noted that the women did their research on a Monday, while the men did so on a Saturday. Bill Fech: I'm probably not the best person to review strip clubs.

Thibodeau withdrew her bill from consideration even though, she said, it was important to her and she believes trafficking happens in bottle clubs. Thibodeau, who was appointed this session to replace Sen. Joni Craighead, who resigned, took over the bottle club bill, which was stalled on second reading last year.
