CURRENT BUENS Wu axes street outreach on Mass/cass. Endorses fines and stay-away orders.

Tensions at Mass. and Cass spark debate over how to help people struggling with substance abuse Aid workers say stronger enforcement undermines efforts to help people on the streets, but the city says its approach is working. By Chris Serres Globe Staff, Updated December 30, 2025, 6:00 a.m. | 〜 A photo of two women hugging On Dec 30th, the Boston Globe dropped a story surrounding mounting hostility towards street outreach workers by law enforcement.

Mayor Michelle Wu and admin are increasingly pushing enforcement over harm reduction. Civilian outreach groups distributing winter clothing, food, Narcan and hygiene supplies report being Yelled at, followed by police, and ordered to leave while doing lifesaving street outreach.

TL;DR: THERE IS BLOOD ON WU'S HANDS. • Boston is fining and banning street outreach • Shelters are full during a freezing, wet winter • Harm reduction is being pushed out by force This does not create safety. It cuts off Narcan, HIV-Prevention, warmth, food and trusted care from sex workers and people who use drugs. When shelters are full, when outreach is criminalized, when survival is punished, People die

Mayor Wu’s administration @mayorwu.boston.gov is trying to ban street outreach at Mass & Cass, targeting the very people who help street based sex workers and drug users stay alive.

This is cruel abandonment by policy. We will continue our street outreach despite this.

Today we hold space for grief, rage, love and resistance.
Violence against sex workers doesn’t need to be inevitable.
That’s why we fight for more. More dignity, more rights, more autonomy. For a safer tomorrow.

One of our members, a neurodivergent trans woman facing multiple barriers in the workplace, is currently unhoused and looking for support to stay in a motel until she can find more stable housing. If you can help, her Cash App is $AvaB1400. She is also looking for jobs to apply to.

Thank you! 💖

ATTENTION! The House of Energy and Commerce has pushed a package of(now 18) "child safety" bills to a subcommittee markup.

This means the bills will be likely voted on to go to a FULL committee markup, which sends it out to the House.

Call the Committee. Tell them to vote NO

Our bill to decriminalize sex work in Massachusetts is being heard at the State House next Tuesday, 11/25 at 10am!

We need people to join us to testify in support - you can testify in person or virtually - and to send written testimony. DM us if you want to help!

Supporting the Epstein survivors is important, but please don’t support World Without Exploitation. They advocate for policies that are really harmful to sex workers, like the Nordic Model, which puts sex workers at greater risk of violence and poverty by criminalizing their clients.

It’s getting wild out there! If you’re a Mass. based provider or community member that needs help, message me. If you’d like to support my mutual aid efforts, see the pic!
