Happy #TransDayofVisibility! We honor the trans sex workers who have been at the forefront of the battle for trans rights, racial equality, decriminalization, and social justice as a whole.

We also ask for support for our community member Frankie, who is recovering from gender affirming surgery.

Thank you so much for sharing!!!
Once people have sent that letter, you can also send this one urging lawmakers NOT to pass a bill that would conflate sex work and sex trafficking, and to PASS a bill that would enable sex workers to report a crime without fear of arrest!

3. Urge the Public Safety & Homeland Security Committee to pass H2634, an Act Relative to Sexual Assault by an Officer.

This bill would make it illegal for cops to engage in sexual conduct with sex workers during undercover operations (read: rape them).

By Chris Serres Globe Staff, Updated December 30, 2025, 6:00 a.m. | 〜 A photo of two women hugging On Dec 30th, the Boston Globe dropped a story surrounding mounting hostility towards street outreach workers by law enforcement.

Mayor Michelle Wu and admin are increasingly pushing enforcement over harm reduction. Civilian outreach groups distributing winter clothing, food, Narcan and hygiene supplies report being Yelled at, followed by police, and ordered to leave while doing lifesaving street outreach.

Mayor Michelle Wu and admin are increasingly pushing enforcement over harm reduction. Civilian outreach groups distributing winter clothing, food, Narcan and hygiene supplies report being Yelled at, followed by police, and ordered to leave while doing lifesaving street outreach.

TL;DR: THERE IS BLOOD ON WU'S HANDS.
• Boston is fining and banning street outreach
• Shelters are full during a freezing, wet winter
• Harm reduction is being pushed out by force
This does not create safety.
It cuts off Narcan, HIV-Prevention, warmth, food and trusted care from sex workers and people who use drugs.
When shelters are full, when outreach is criminalized, when survival is punished,
People die

Mayor Wu’s administration @mayorwu.boston.gov is trying to ban street outreach at Mass & Cass, targeting the very people who help street based sex workers and drug users stay alive.

This is cruel abandonment by policy. We will continue our street outreach despite this.

Today we hold space for grief, rage, love and resistance.
Violence against sex workers doesn’t need to be inevitable.
That’s why we fight for more. More dignity, more rights, more autonomy. For a safer tomorrow.

ATTENTION! The House of Energy and Commerce has pushed a package of(now 18) "child safety" bills to a subcommittee markup.

This means the bills will be likely voted on to go to a FULL committee markup, which sends it out to the House.

Call the Committee. Tell them to vote NO
