“The vote will be in public, and it will be during the second part of the meeting.” ~Sarah Mone, OSH Standards Board spokeswoman.
The OSH Standards Board, which sets measures within the Cal/OSHA program, will be voting today on whether or not the proposed new rules to the existing § 5193, “the condom law” will be issued.
The hearing will be at 10:00 AM (PST), in the Harris State Building, 1515 Clay Street in Oakland, CA.
In addition to mandating condoms use, some of the proposed new rules would require dental dams for oral sex scenes and safety goggles for facials. Widespread, vague, and potentially far-reaching, the new proposals include could extend beyond how porn is filmed. They open the door to penalties for the promotion and distribution of “non-compliant” productions. In other words, this could change “modern porn” as we know it.
As we reported last week, new Free Speech Coalition Executive Director Eric Paul Leue will be there leading the fight. NakedSword will be represented by mr. Pam and the most photographed nun in the world, Sister Roma. Many performers are expected to attend as well, including Max Cameron who was featured in Hooker Stories 3

This is not about the right to bareback. This is not about the right to film it. This is about refuting the false allegations of Michael Weinstein and the AHF that the porn industry is nothing more than financially incentivized bug chasers whose PASS screening system is a junior high science project.

So is the base that this group is advocating for? The actual sex worker or the productions that don’t protect them.
