\"In response to the new federal law that resulted in widespread censorship of websites that include sexual content, a new national organization has formed to repeal this law and decriminalize sex work nationwide.\
\
The mission of Decriminalize Sex Work -- a new national organization with offices in Austin, New York City, and Washington DC -- is "to end the prohibition of prostitution in the United States." The organization's national strategy is to inform the public about the harms caused by prohibition, with a focus on lobbying state governments to remove penalties for adult prostitution and all other forms of consensual sex work if conducted in private.\
\
The organization's ideal state legislation removes all penalties for consensual, adult sex work if conducted in private residences, hotel rooms, or licensed business locations known as brothels.\"\
