Thank you, Ms. Clancey, and thank you for your kind words at the beginning.
A phenomenon I've been observing in these hearings is that there tends to be some kind of presumption that PCEPA has somehow reduced the frequency of sex work. I think most of us would say that no evidence of that has been presented. Instead, what this committee is focusing on is the real impacts of PCEPA, which are making sex work increasingly more dangerous.
How do you feel about the argument that PCEPA has somehow reduced the frequency of sex work?
