More and more states are introducing bills to decriminalize or legalize prostitution. Full decriminalization means empowering other aspects of the sex trade, including pimping, purchasing sex and operating brothels. We have the opportunity to take a stand now and voice the dangers of full decriminalization of the sex trade.
Washington, D.C., lawmakers are waiting to vote on decriminalizing the sex trade, including pimping, purchasing sex and operating brothels. D.C. would be the first U.S. city to fully decriminalize prostitution which is guaranteed to increase the prevalence of sex trafficking.
