Summary
This document, stamped by the House Oversight Committee, details the legal and regulatory challenges faced by 'Lifestyles' (a swingers organization) regarding their conventions in the late 1990s. It describes conflicts with the ABC (Alcoholic Beverage Control) over public decency regulations, resulting in venue changes from San Diego to Palm Springs and eventually Las Vegas. The text mentions specific incidents involving alleged sexual acts at hotels and a lawyer's cynical suggestion to buy a town in Mexico to avoid US regulations.
