We had a great lobby day for Cecilia’s Act this week! This is the bill New York needs and sex workers deserve! Let’s pass it this year! @decrimny.bsky.social @maketheroadny.bsky.social

(1/3) What a success!! 🚨 110+ advocates rallied in Albany to demand the passage of #CeciliasAct (S2513/A3251)—a bill to decriminalize adult consensual s*x work, vacate past convictions, & ensure access to housing, jobs & benefits without fear of criminalization.

(1/2) Today is our advocacy day!! Follow us as we advocate Cecilia's Act for Rights in the S*x Trades S2513/A3251 ( @salazarsenate.bsky.social / @phara4assembly.bsky.social ) and push for real protections, resources, and justice.

(1/5) 🎬✨ Anora may have won five Oscars, but what about the s*x workers still fighting for their rights & safety every single day?

(1/3) 🔥 Today is International Sex Worker Rights Day (#ISWRD). Tomorrow, we fight for safety & dignity at the NYS Capitol for our Advocacy Day. #CeciliasAct

(1/10) This #BlackHistoryMonth , we’re dismantling racist narratives that fuel systemic oppression. The term “pimp” has long been used to criminalize Black men, reinforcing racist stereotypes that justify over-policing and incarceration.

1/8) Cecilia’s Act for Rights in the S*x Trades S2513/A3251 (Salazar/Souffrant Forrest) — Formerly the Stop Violence in the S*x Trades Act (SVSTA) We renamed our bill to honor Cecilia Gentili, a fierce advocate, organizer & co-founder of Decrim NY. Read on to learn more ⬇️
