đź”´WARNING: I know. This is hard to believe. New York is currently the only state in the nation that continues to treat the solicitation of 15-, 16-, or 17-year-old children for sex as a low-level offense, meaning perpetrators do not face felony charges.
Under current New York law, an adult who buys a 15-, 16-, or 17-year-old child can face far weaker consequences than someone who exploits a younger child. That distinction is dangerous. It tells predators that the age of the child they target can determine how seriously the state treats the crime.
A.9214 / S.8609, the Victim Protection and Child Sex Buyer Accountability Act would correct these deficiencies by affirming that any minor under the age of 18 who is bought for commercial sex is, by definition, a victim of trafficking. The bill would ensure survivors are recognized as victims—not criminals—and that those who sexually exploit children face meaningful accountability. It would also modernize statutory language to reflect the coercive tactics traffickers actually use, strengthening New York’s ability to hold perpetrators accountable while validating survivors’ lived experiences.
