A Houston judge heard arguments Monday in a federal lawsuit over recently passed Texas Senate Bill 12, which proponents say is meant to protect minors from sexually-oriented material. 

Plaintiffs in the lawsuit say the bill's language is vague and that the law targets drag shows.

Lawyers with the American Civil Liberties Union of Texas are representing five plaintiffs, including business owners who put on drag performances as well as community organizations. 

They hope to receive a permanent injunction from Judge David Hittner blocking the law from going into effect on Sept. 1.
