Since the TVRA of 2003 - there was a push that anyone who received federal money to work with trafficking victims could not do so without signing an agreement opposing prostitution.  For some reason, people who can't be very intelligent have confused that to mean to also oppose Sex Workers Anonymous.  Why?  I have no clue . I have no idea how we're "supporting prostitution".  We're no more supporting prostitution than Alcoholics Anonymous supports the alcohol industry or Narcotics Anonymous supports medical marijuana.  Don't get it.

But the Supreme Court ruled it was unconstitutional to block anyone receiving federal money from working with another agency that hadn't also signed this agreement.  We can't sign any such agreement as we "have no opinion on outside issues" being a 12 step group.  Again, NA does not step up to try and block medical marijuana legislation.

Their focus, and ours, is only and solely on helping people to leave the industry, stop the behavior, and recover.  That's it.  Therefore, anyone blocking a prostitute from finding help in our organization is violating that person's constitutional rights according to the Supreme Court.

CHICAGO POLICE TRAFFICKING 14 YEAR OLDS

To Reporter Craig Walls - this case http://www.fox32chicago.com/news/local/33667842-story is EXACTLY why our hotline is so important as well as the Children of the Night hotline for minors. Most victims of trafficking CAN NOT CALL THE POLICE for one reason or another. The National Trafficking Hotline is great - however for those who can't call the authorities for help it leaves them no options as they either report to the authorities, or they refer to a task force headed by authorities. When I founded the movement to have sex trafficking recognized - it was two parts. Yes I wanted people to know trafficking was real but the SECOND PART was that we can't call the police for help in most cases. I'm working on a case right now where a woman was drug out of her house by two Pasadena officers. When I stepped in to help her - I was threatened by another officer myself. http://sanitytodayonline.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-sound-of-music-and-pasadena.html This case is al

SESTA/FOSTA OPPOSITION

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2022/09/fight-overturn-fosta-unconstitutional-internet-censorship-law-continues I know when something doesn't make sense, to go check back on it later on. Now maybe I look at this lawsuit a bit differently because I've been working as a paralegal for so long now, but when I've shown this case to various lawyers - they all say the same thing - this case will be dismissed for a lack of standing. EVEN IF they can prove standing, they can't prove damages. If they can't show actual damages by SESTA/FOSTA - then how on earth are they going to prove they can over turn this case. I do know that "Alex Andrews" wormed her way into being in this case above and beyond myself - who I knew couldn't prove any standing or damages that SESTA/FOSTA harmed her, especially since I knew not only was this someone claiming to be a working sex worker, someone who others were telling me was still in sex work, but further wasn't even her
