Again, we didn't ask questions about the legislation, but I can tell you, on behalf of those whom I believe we are representing as we share the results of this research, that many of them spoke to the harms of purchasing and how buyers were violent. We would certainly speak in support of keeping that provision in place. We need to have the section 286.1 purchasing provision stay as it is, based on what the research tells us: that it's the buyers and the pimps and traffickers, the exploiters, who are causing the violence.
We believe the law protects those who are experiencing that kind of violence.
