YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Yodit Tewolde sits down with Rep. Lois Galgay Reckitt, a state representative for Maine, and Dee Clarke, the founder of "Survivor Speak, to talk about Maine proposing legislation that decriminalizes sex work.

Reckitt says that legalizing sex work fully won't drive down the demand for sex work, which she says is a central part of the issue.

Clarke also talks about her organization's fight against sex trafficking.

"We know what's happening. We know what recruiters do and it's gonna leave young girls more vulnerable,” Clarke says.

All this and more on "Making the Case w/ Yodit Tewolde."
