Decriminalizes certain prostitution offenses and establishes the offense of commercial sexual exploitation

HB 2450 decriminalizes specific acts related to prostitution by removing criminal penalties for individuals engaging in consensual sex work, while establishing a new offense of "commercial sexual exploitation" targeting those who profit from or control others in sex work. The bill directly affects people engaging in certain sex work activities (no longer facing criminal charges) and those exploiting others through commercial sex operations. Key mechanisms include repealing existing prostitution-related statutes and replacing them with new definitions and penalties, such as criminalizing commercial sexual exploitation (e.g., profiting from others' sex work) while removing criminal liability for the individuals performing the acts. The law clarifies terms like "commercial sexual exploitation" and "sexually oriented business" to define the scope of the new offense.
