We the people ask the federal government to Call on Congress to act on an issue:

Create federal legislation to legalize and regulate prostitution in the United States

Created by J.K. on November 29, 2016

The illegality of prostitution is based on faulty myths that have been proven false long ago; the purported exploitation and abuse of prostitutes have been found to be vastly overstated. In instances where a sex worker truly is being abused or exploited, legalizing prostitution would allow them to contact law enforcement without fear of being reprimanded. In addition, benefits such as a reduction in sexual violence have been reported in areas where prostitution is legal. For these reasons, it is on the U.S. Congress to establish legality of prostitution.
