FSC Issues 'Action Alert' To Stop SESTA From Censoring the Net

CANOGA PARK, Calif.—The Free Speech Coalition has issued a "call to action" regarding the SESTA bill which is before the U.S. Senate, and would take away online protections from the adult community and sex workers: Dear Community, The urgent fight against SESTA continues on this final weekend before the Senate votes this Monday, March 19th. Our Newsletter will be sent out on Monday with updated information on the outcome of this decision.  Take Action Today! There is still time to lobby your Senators to oppose the passing of this detrimental bill.  Along with dozens of other national organizations, FSC strongly opposes SESTA, the legislation that threatens to eradicate protections for sex workers, while leaving producers of adult content vulnerable to litigation. SESTA does nothing to distinguish the difference between consensual sex work and sex trafficking. Therefore the field is wide open for the censorship of and lawsuits against members of the adult industry. We at FSC will not let the members of our community fight that battle alone. We stand by our members and are willing to go to court to defend your rights.  From the recent repeal of Net Neutrality, to a number of states declaring porn as a public health crisis, and the block-filter content proposed in HTPA, there are a number of ways the industry is currently under attack. Our #StopSESTA action page has more information on the actions you can take to help ensure the longevity and existence of our industry as a whole.  #UnitedWeStand
