Subject: Support Decriminalisation of Sex Work

Dear [Representative Name],

I am a constituent in [Your Area] writing to urge you to support legislation that fully decriminalizes sex work. Criminalization makes sex workers more vulnerable to violence, exploitation, and barriers to healthcare. Evidence shows that decriminalization improves safety, public health, and human rights.

I ask you to:

• Vote in favour of any bill supporting full decriminalisation.
• Meet with local sex worker-led organizations.
• Publicly advocate for policies informed by sex workers themselves.

Thank you for your attention to this critical issue.

Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address]
