Current Initiative - Reduce the punishment for prostitution charges.
Today, a worker picked up for prostitution can be charged with a criminal misdemeanor, a charge that can come with huge fines, jail time, and future struggles finding work in vanilla industries.
We are working to pass a Pittsburgh ordinance that reduces those charges to a summary charge with no jail time and a small fine or community service.
