      Glad to see that the FBI shut down the Backpage website today – though it took far too long to happen. That website promoted the modern day slavery of women and children, including in Florida.

      Once the bill I sponsored called SESTA is signed into law, state and local law enforcement will have new tools to stop these websites faster and victims can get their day in court while also freeing themselves from sexual slavery!

          Backpage worked w/ LEO to identify & help trafficking victims while protecting those who chose sexwork of their own volition. SESTA deliberately conflates the two, threatens the existence of sexwork in the name of helping trafficking victims & weakens existing support structures.

          I'm sorry, Senator, but I'm afraid the authorship of this bill implies you either fell prey to fear-mongering tactics or sincerely are anti-sex work. @swopbehindbars is just ONE resource that could have given you better data. I will be voting against you in the primary.

          We totally agree. The actually facts are now indicating they drove the hard core sex trafficking into private networks. ...

          Replying to @mediachecker @SenBillNelson @swopbehindbars

          To be fair, the dark net has always been rife with this, but by blocking even the existence of sites like this, there are now fewer in-roads for investigators and rescue efforts. A private network means no leaks, no hints, and no supporting evidence for victims who might escape.

          Exactly. EVERYBODY hates exploitation and #sexworkers fight #sextrafficking. Our organizations support survivors, victims and empower them to live their lives without being rescued. #HandcuffsAreNEVERRescue

          There will be an increase of violent crime, homelessness and hunger. @amnesty, @FreedomNetUSA and many others have begged you to #LetUsSurvive but you refuse to #listentoallsexworkers or hear #SurvivorsAgainstSESTA and we will vote you out of office. #promise

          But now you are on my list of senators I want replaced. You don’t represent me or my community. @GreenPartyUS has written a policy on #decriminalization of #sexwork and this is what actually protects victims.

          Is prostitution legal in Florida? No, so what they were doing was illegal.

          You had a private conversation w/Zuckerberg? Did you get that idea from Low-retta Lynch? Typical swamp rat.
