(From Plus): Washington D.C. Council Member David Grosso introduced the Reducing Criminalization to Improve Community Health and Safety Amendment Act of 2017. Grosso developed the bill after working with the Sex Worker Advocates Coalition.

"I believe that we as a society are coming to realize that excessive criminalization is causing more harm than good, from school discipline to drug laws to homelessness," said Grosso. "It is time for D.C. to reconsider the framework in which we handle commercial sex and move it from one of criminalization to a focus on human rights, health and safety." (For More Click Here.)
