Details
Submitted by[?]: New Socialist Agenda
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: July 2563
Description[?]:
| "A person should be free to do with his or her body what he or she pleases; even make money off of it. The government does not own a person's body, and therefore has no right to tell a person what he or she can do with it. Let me also point out that making prostitution does not eliminate, or even reduce it, but merely places it on the black market, which directly leads to the existence of "pimps," organized crime involvement in prostitution, and mistreatment of women. "Pimps," involvement of organized crime, human trafficking, and outright mistreatment of women do not occur in the prostitution industry when it is on the legal and open market." -Raamiah Galgenstrick, Chairman of the GJA Foreign Minister of the SJHB |
