Stopping the insanity:

At the top left, you can plug in your zip code and find your
representative's name.
Once you know the name, you can click their name to go to their website and
call their local office, or email them or you can call the House operator
at (202) 224-3121 and ask to be connected with your representative's office.
You can use the following, or you can use your own:
"Hi, my name is First & Last Name, and I am a constituent living
in[town/city]. I'm calling to urge Congress(woman/man) First and Last Name,
to fight against H.R.5575, a bill introduced by Representatives Maloney and
Smith that seeks to further victimize disadvantaged women and children
under the guise of helping them.
The bill increases resources for law enforcement to arrest and prosecute
those who have turned to sex work to support themselves and their families,
often these women and children are trying to escape situation of abuse, and
they are only further victimized by the trauma of arrest and the inability
to seek gainful employment with a criminal history of prostitution on their
record.
The Bureau of Justice Statistics reports slightly over 1200 cases of human
trafficking were alleged over a 21 month period of time and only 10% of
those were found to be valid, including labor, sex, children and adults,
however anti-prostitution organizations disguising themselves as advocates
for victims of sex trafficking, have greatly inflated these statistics and
often present them without citing their source of information while
encouraging support for legislation knowing the legislation has been proven
to be harmful to these victims.
These non-government organizations are further exploiting these women and
children by fraudulently soliciting funds to help them through donations
and attempting to defraud congress by cleverly disguising legislation which
would grant them millions of dollars to help these victims, knowing those
funds will be unnecessary because they are ensuring those victims will be
arrested and sent to jail. For example, the results of the FBI's Lost
Innocence Initiative, which is funded to rescue children who are being
forced into prostitution, resulted in 69 children and 880 adults rescued
and sent to jail from January - December 2010, none of which appear to have
been consulted in regards to the mission.
I recall a History Channel show on the History or Prostiuttion. The History
Channel highlighted now the the Mann act was shoved through Congress on a
bed of lies only to send the newly-formed FBI out on a moral crusade to
find little or no victims. The early 1900s was the era of Congressional
lying when they outlawed most all the drugs, prostitution, and alcohol. We
are in a similar era now.
Will the Congress(woman/man) First and Last Name, please help stop
legislation which is being presented as helpful to victims by their
self-proclaimed "advocates", without first consulting those victims which
do still have voices but are currently being ignored because they don't
have the money or the resources required to be heard ?
