Flutterby™! : Kamala Harris & sex work

Melissa Gira Grant in the Washington Post: Kamala Harris brought sex work into the 2020 spotlight. Here’s what she should do next.

On Tuesday, Kamala Harris became the first mainstream U.S. presidential candidate to publicly state she supports the decriminalization of sex work. In an interview with the Root, the career prosecutor and junior senator from California was asked, “Do you think that sex work ought to be decriminalized?” She answered, “I think so. I do.” She later added that “when you are talking about consenting adults, I think that, you know, yes, we should really consider that we can’t criminalize consensual behavior as long as no one is being harmed.”
