A group of adult film professionals announced they’re running ads claiming the Republican Party wants to “criminalize porn.” The ads will appropriately play on adult entertainment websites.
A total of 17 pornographic actors joined forces for the Hands Off My Porn campaign, which is running ads in the swing states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada.
“Conservatives are planning to criminalize porn,” the website reads. “Don’t let them control what you watch!”
The adult entertainment figures behind the campaign include Monique Alexander, Brittney Andrews, Allie Awesome, Casey Calvert, Siri Dahl, Seth Gamble, Kimmy Kimm, Tommy Pistol, Siouxsie Q, and more.
“Don’t let these zealots try and pass laws to criminalize the entire adult entertainment industry based on misinformation, disinformation, and outright lies!” Kimm wrote in a testimonial.
The website also includes a link to register to vote.
The claims about banning porn stem from The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, controversial policy proposals for Republicans. The Heritage Foundation has
Former President Donald Trump has maintained that despite ties between his running mate JD Vance and others and Project 2025, he does not endorse it or back everything proposed.
“This was a group of people that got together. They came up with some ideas, I guess some good, some bad. But it makes no difference,” Trump said during his debate with Vice President Kamala Harris. “Everybody knows I’m an open book. Everybody knows what I’m going to do.”
Project 2025 argues that pornographic material “has no claim to First Amendment protection.”
“Its purveyors are child predators and misogynistic exploiters of women,” the agenda proposal reads.
It goes on to call for pornography to be “outlawed,” saying it has the “omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children.”
“The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offender,” the agenda reads. “And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.”
