More than half a dozen Republican-led states have done what previously seemed impossible: Changing the multi-billion-dollar online porn industry through legislation and regulation that stop minors from accessing it.
Louisiana led the charge by becoming the first state to require online pornography users to show a government-issued ID to prove they are 18 or older before accessing pornography.
Democrat Gov. John Bel Edwards, who is no fan of the state's Republican super-majority in the legislature, signed the bill restricting pornography access one week after it hit his desk.
“I promise you he has no qualms about vetoing our bills,” Republican state Rep. Laurie Schlegel told Politico last week about the pornography bill she sponsored in Louisiana.
