First of all, it's important to note that women and girls are immune from prosecution under the PCEPA. That's very important, except there's one clause in PCEPA that does criminalize women if they are prostituting themselves in specific areas. We do not support that, and we would ask that this be removed. I also think there needs to be better legislation.
