Overbroad and Overbreadth

The video tutorial explains the concept of overbroad laws, which are laws that, while targeting specific conduct, inadvertently affect other types of conduct or individuals not intended by the law. Such laws can be deemed unconstitutional if they infringe on protected rights. Legislators must draft laws with a narrower scope to avoid infringing on unintended rights and ensure the law's constitutionality.
