Prop. 35: Ban on Human Trafficking and Sex Slavery
Brett Myers/Youth Radio
An Oakland police officer takes a booking photo of an adult woman arrested for prostitution.
Proposition 35, a new tough-on-trafficking measure, expands the definition of human trafficking and dramatically increases prison terms and fines for offenders. While everyone seems united against human trafficking, opponents of Prop. 35 argue that it's a politically motivated initiative that will penalize sex workers and their families, rather than criminals who trade in human beings. Defenders of the proposition assert the need for increased penalties in order to deter traffickers and protect those most vulnerable from the threat of sex slavery.
Host: Michael Krasny
