Oregon has decriminalized recreational cannabis, drugs, and now, potentially, sex work. Sex Workers Project is seeking to decriminalize sex work in Oregon, in hopes it will become the first state to do so statewide. Recently, state Rep. Rob Nosse filed House Bill 3088 at the request of the Sex Workers Project, which would invalidate the state’s prostitution statutes, decriminalizing those engaged in selling sex, their customers, and third parties.
Nosse introduced his bill understanding it makes Oregon a test case: “We seem to do really well at passing these libertarianesque things,” he says. Oregon’s progressive atmosphere makes it a prime candidate to test out legal sex work: HB 3088 would implement what advocates call “full decriminalization,” removing penalties for selling sex, paying for it, and facilitating it as a third party. The Sex Workers Project is gearing up for an all-out public relations campaign, which it calls DecrimwORk, including state-level efforts around “decriminalizing, destigmatizing and decarcerating sex workers in the state.”
