It's time to change our discriminatory state laws that harm women and LGBTQ individuals. We support the repeal of "loitering for the purpose of prostitution" law, which has resulted in unjust police profiling, arrests, harassment and violence and disproportionately targets women of color and the transgender community.

The Equality Model will decriminalize people in prostitution, increase access to social services, and hold sex buyers accountable through fines. Statutes on pimping will not be changed.
