    We spend $80 billion a year locking up 2.2 million people, more than any country on Earth. That is outrageous. As president my goal will be to cut the incarcerated population in half.

        Please say part of this strategy is decriminalizing sex work & repealing bad bills like SESTA/FOSTA. #RightsNotRescue

        I just wish he’d realize that by rejecting us, he’s rejecting a huge part of his base. Sex workers could absolutely advocate for his vision if he only acknowledged us as a labor force in the US.https://twitter.com/ConnerHabib/status/1163205906110328832?s=20 …

        If Bernie Sanders cannot unequivocally support decriminalization after the all the work done with the DSA - which was years and years of work done by sex workers to even get someone to listen - then we should not trust or support him. This is a 2016 repeat.

        An easier route would be to encourage people to uphold the law, support law enforcement and when appropriate review current laws in place. We like a proactive President and if you need a good example, I recommend @realDonaldTrump

        I doubt they would appreciate being cut in half. Seems a harsher punishment than prison.
