And if you believe that's what it should be, then that's fine, but the as the mayor of this city, I know what sex trafficking looks like, I know what women who are selling their bodies on the street the abuse they go through, I know the amount of assault on them, So those who can find a logical reason that a woman should be on the street, or a boy....it's wrong.

Mayor Eric Adams expressed strong opposition to Zohran Mamdani's push to decriminalize prostitution, emphasizing the religious and ethical implications of the issue. He stated, "I can't be more clear. I'm a man of God, just as Mamdani says he's a Muslim. I don't know where in his Quran it states that it's ok for a woman to be on the streets selling their body." Adams views Mamdani's stance as neglecting the serious issues of sex trafficking and safety for vulnerable populations.
