A bill that would place tougher regulations on adult entertainment businesses has stalled after a tie vote in the Senate.
The bill will now be in negotiation between House and Senate conference committee.
Phillip Cosby, with the "National Coalition for the Protection of Children and Families" said he was disappointed with the vote because it was so close, but he says its far from over.
He said, "There was some confusion on the existing ordinances; cities and counties being exempt if they have something else in place which probably raised more questions than answers. But, it was an opportunity to defeat the bill with some confusion, the tragedy is the majority of Kansas is still exposed to the ambush of a very rich industry."
Cosby went on to say they've been fighting for five years to get this far, and there is always next year if they don't get it done this session.
