"Street sex workers are among our most vulnerable houseless to experience violence. We support SB 233 and our friends of @dominatrixesagainstdonaldtrump ✊🏻🔥 It’s no coincidence that the government is coming after reproductive rights and sex work. Body autonomy is under attack. We can not chant the feminist creed, “My body, my choice” unless that extends to our right to make choices that include sexual and emotional labor. Sex work is work. Sex workers are asking for basic human safety and dignity, as they labor. New laws, like SESTA / FOSTA and others, further marginalize already vulnerable populations. Sex workers are dying as a direct result. This is not rhetoric. Right now, sex workers are being forced off the Internet, and back onto the streets, where they are being picked off by pimps and predators. Our ultimate goal is to repeal SESTA/FOSTA and decriminalize sex work. For now, we want to be able to use condoms without fear of them being used as evidence, and we want to be able to report violent crimes against us without the fear of being of imprisoned. . . In California, a new bill called SB 233 would give us those basic human rights. Please help us. SB 233 will be heard before the California State Assembly Public Safety Committee Tuesday June 11th. . . If You Live In The Great Los Angles Area Call: Reginald Byron Jones-Sawyer, Sr. (Chair) Tel: (916) 319-2059 Tom Lackey (Vice Chair) (916) 319-2036 Tyler Diep (916) 319-2072 Sydney Kamlager-Dove (916) 319-2054 Miguel Santiago (916) 319-2053 . . And urge them to support Senate Bill 233 ASAP! Tell them, Sex workers should not be arrested for having condoms or reporting a crime! . . It is only when they start to see us as real people, doing real work, that we will given these most basic human rights. We are valuable and so is the work we do!
