Senator Lauren Book wants to make a "Soliciting for Prostitution" Registry (SB 540)

The difference between a politician and a prostitute is that a prostitute
usually screws only one person at a time for money
Senator Lauren Book filed SB 540, which, among other things, will create a "Solicitation of Prostitution" registry. Proponents of legalizing sex work in America should be very concerned about this bill.
