Today is International Sex Workers’ Rights Day!
We’re celebrating by taking action with Decrim NY to remove harmful loitering statutes in New York State. On Tuesday, March 5th, a bill to repeal loitering for the purposes of prostitution is set to go through its first vote in the Assembly Codes committee. This statute is used by police to criminalized Black + brown women, especially those who are trans. If you’re a New Yorker, call Assembly Codes Chair Joseph Lentol’s office at 518-455-4477 & express support to pass bill A654 to repeal this racist & transphobic law!
