Detroit area Democratic Congressman Shri Thanedar has called for the nationwide decriminalization of sex work.
The call comes in the wake of a recent House Ethics Committee report on former Representative Matt Gaetz.
In response to the report, Rep. Thanedar stated on X, “We should decriminalize sex work to maximize sex workers’ legal protection and their ability to exercise other rights, including unionization, justice, and health care. Decriminalization and regulation would prevent trafficking and exploitation of minors.”
