Missouri Declares Pornography A Public Health Crisis

The state of Missouri has joined in the fight against pornography by passing the Senate Concurring Resolution No. 52 recognizing “pornography as leading to individual and societal harms and recognize the need for education, prevention, research, and policy change at the community and societal level.”

Passing with 31 votes in favor, the bill declares that pornography “perpetuates a sexually toxic environment” and “may contribute to the hypersexualization of teenagers, and even prepubescent children, in our society.”
