Mixtapes for Hookers

If you’re following the prostitution situation in Rhode Island at all–and, I admit, I haven’t done a very good job of keeping you updated lately–you’ll want to read this.  It’s about the alleged anti-trafficking organization pushing the bill, and the fact they clearly have no interest in things like facts or truth or human trafficking.  Since the state’s real anti-trafficking coalition, the state chapter of the National Organization for Women, and the Students Against Human Trafficking groups aren’t supporting the bills, it ought to make legislators stop and wonder.  (Probably it won’t.  But it should.)

Anyway, the anti-prostitution bill comes before the state legislature late next week.  There’s public hearings in the House on Tuesday and the Senate on Wednesday.  I haven’t actually been inside the State House since a field trip when I was ten, so I’m not sure what happens, or how, or where, but Tara at the Happy Endings? blog probably does.
