Why Did These Republicans Vote Against Helping Sex Trafficking Victims?

Multiple bills regarding protecting the victims of sex trafficking went through the House during the 87th Legislature. Some are sitting on Abbott’s desk waiting to be signed. Even though these bills passed, dozens of Republicans voted against them.

To them they are just sluts and whores getting what they deserved.

Then of course there is the whole owning the libs thing. If a law or policy smells leftist they won't vote for it.

Doesn't matter how important or moral the policy it is "liberal" and must be defeated.
