“I was approached by an undercover vice officer, who threatened to arrest me for the charge if I didn’t give him oral sex. I did, because I had no choice.” @VOCALNewYork leader TS Candii explains why we must repeal the #WalkingWhileTrans ban this session! @bradhoylman @AmyPaulin
“Loitering for the purposes of prostitution” laws allow police to profile, harass, & arrest trans communities, Black & POC femmes for “wearing a skirt” “waving at a car,” simply EXISTING in public space. Decriminalizing #WalkingWhileTrans is for all of our safety #SheSafeWeSafe
Queens district attorney Tiffany Cabán here to speak against transphobic acts of hate. #WalkingWhileTrans should never be met with violence
“I want to be clear, the only reason repeal 50-A, #LessIsMoreNY, #HALTsolitary, ending the school to prison pipeline, #MarijuanaJustice, #WalkingWhileTrans Ban .. hasn’t passed yet .. is because we have a crisis of courage.” @Kassandra_Fred
You do not have to be loitering for prostitution
or be a sexworker. 50-A allows the New York
Police Department to profile and arrest any
transwoman of color. #WalkingWhileTrans
